What Relocation Support Services does

Relocation Support Services Limited is a UK-based, privately held corporate relocation services provider founded in 1995 (originally as Relocation Support Group, rebranded in 2011). The company delivers end-to-end destination services — including Area Orientation, Home Finding, Education Support, Settling-In, Tenancy Management, and Departure Services — alongside additional offerings such as Cultural Training, Expense Management, Furniture Rental, Global Immigration Support (covering 120+ countries), Move Management via the FIDI partner network, Spousal Assistance, and Temporary Accommodation. It also provides HR-facing services comprising Policy Consulting and Reporting.

The business operates a high-touch, bespoke delivery model with dedicated Account Managers, individual Service Level Agreements per client, and KPI-monitored performance. There is no proprietary technology platform; service delivery is people-led by a team cited at around 20 specialists with over 150 years of combined industry experience. The Maidenhead-headquartered firm is owned and led by co-founder Christina Lawson (Executive Director, Chairwoman of ARP) and Managing Director Alistair Murray (board member of EuRA), with the EuRA Global Quality Seal (ISO 9001-backed) achieved in 2014 and re-certified in 2016 serving as its principal third-party quality credential.

Revenue mechanics are professional-services based, with bespoke pricing per engagement and multi-year contracts targeted at corporate HR departments relocating employees domestically and internationally. The company has no external funding, no subsidiaries, no M&A history, and no public financials; growth has historically been organic, anchored by long-standing client relationships and industry-association visibility.
