Our approach

Relocation that works — for HR and for people

Moving an employee across borders is one of the most complex challenges an HR team faces. Immigration timelines, housing markets, family needs, compliance requirements — every detail matters, and every delay costs.

Fisher Relocations was built to take that complexity off your desk. Our senior consultants manage the full relocation journey, from the first call to the day your assignee feels at home — in Brussels or anywhere in the world.

We work directly with multinational HR teams, providing clear communication, reliable timelines, and a single point of accountability from start to finish.

Why Fisher

What a boutique consultancy delivers that large agencies cannot

HR directors who have worked with large relocation agencies know the frustrations: rotating account managers, slow escalations, generic solutions. Fisher was built to be the opposite.

1
Senior-led from start to finish
Every dossier is managed by an experienced consultant — not delegated down the chain. You always know who handles your case.
2
20 years of Brussels market knowledge
We know which landlords are expat-friendly, which schools still have places, and which immigration routes move fastest.
3
Multilingual by design
We work in English, French, Dutch and Italian — matching the language of your assignee and your HR team, without friction.
4
Inbound & outbound expertise
We support employees arriving in Belgium and those deployed internationally. One trusted partner, both directions.
Work with us

Ready to make your next
relocation seamless?

Whether you're placing one assignee or managing a full mobility programme, our team is ready. Let's talk.

What we do

Relocation,
handled.

From the first permit application to the day your assignee feels at home, Fisher manages every step of the relocation journey. Five integrated services. One dedicated team. Zero handovers.

Whether you're moving one employee or managing a full global mobility programme, we deliver the same level of personal, senior-led attention on every dossier.

01

Home Finding

"The right home changes everything."

We don't send lists of properties. We shortlist the right options based on a thorough intake, accompany your assignee on viewings, and manage the entire process through to signature and move-in. Our deep knowledge of the Brussels rental market — built over 20 years — means we know which landlords are expat-friendly and how to move fast in a competitive market.

What's included
  • Detailed needs assessment — lifestyle, budget, commute, family
  • Personalised property shortlist, pre-screened and visited
  • Accompanied viewings with expert guidance
  • Lease review, negotiation and signature support
  • Move-in inspection and inventory coordination
  • Utility setup and first-week practical support
Why it matters for HR
A failed home search is the number one reason assignees request early repatriation. Getting housing right from the start protects your investment and your employee's wellbeing.
02

Immigration & Work Permits

"Compliance is not optional. Neither is speed."

With 1,400+ immigration files handled across nationalities and permit types, we know the Belgian system inside out — including where the delays are and how to avoid them. We manage every application from document collection to final approval, keeping HR informed at every stage.

What's included
  • Work permit & single permit applications (non-EU nationals)
  • EU citizen registration and residence cards
  • Family reunification and dependant permits
  • Document checklist and collection management
  • Commune appointment scheduling and accompaniment
  • Ongoing compliance monitoring and renewal alerts
Why it matters for HR
An employee working without the right permit exposes your company to significant legal and financial risk. Our compliance tracking ensures you're never caught out.
03

School Search

"For families, the school decision comes first."

For expat families with children, school placement is often the single most important factor in deciding whether to accept an assignment. Brussels has a rich international school landscape, but also fierce competition for places and long waiting lists. We guide families through every step.

What's included
  • School shortlist based on curriculum, language, location and age
  • Application management and deadline tracking
  • Waiting list strategy and follow-up
  • School visit coordination
  • Guidance on IB, British, French, European and local curricula
  • Sibling coordination for families with multiple children
Why it matters for HR
When school placement fails, the whole assignment is at risk. We start school search in parallel with housing — never after — to protect your timelines.
04

Settling-In Support

"The practical essentials that make a city feel like home."

Moving into a new country comes with a seemingly endless list of administrative tasks — commune registration, bank accounts, healthcare, utilities, driving licences. Our settling-in service removes that burden entirely so your assignee can focus on starting their new role.

What's included
  • Commune registration and residence formalities
  • Bank account opening assistance
  • Healthcare registration and GP/specialist referrals
  • Utilities setup — electricity, gas, internet
  • Driving licence exchange guidance
  • Local orientation tour — transport, services, neighbourhood
Why it matters for HR
Assignees who struggle with admin in their first weeks take longer to become productive. A smooth settling-in is a direct investment in performance.
05

Moving & Logistics

"From anywhere, to anywhere. Without the stress."

International moves are logistically complex — customs, insurance, temporary storage, cross-border timing. We coordinate inbound and outbound moves with a vetted network of international removal partners, managing the full logistics chain on your behalf.

What's included
  • Inbound moves to Belgium from any origin
  • Outbound moves from Belgium to any destination
  • Removal partner selection and coordination
  • Customs documentation and clearance support
  • Temporary storage solutions
  • Insurance coordination and claims support
Why it matters for HR
A delayed or damaged shipment creates immediate assignee dissatisfaction — before they've even started. We manage the risk so you don't have to.

Need one service or all five?

We work with HR teams of all sizes — from single assignments to full global mobility programmes. Tell us what you need and we'll build the right solution around it.

Who we are

Built on expertise.
Driven by people.

Fisher Relocations is a Brussels-based boutique consultancy specialising in international employee mobility. For over 20 years, we have helped multinational companies move their people — into Belgium, out of Belgium, and across the world.

What sets us apart is not the volume of cases we manage, but the quality of attention each one receives. We believe that a well-handled relocation changes lives — and that every dossier deserves to be treated that way.

Our story

Two decades of getting it right

Fisher Relocations was founded with a clear conviction: that international mobility, done well, is one of the most impactful things a company can do for its people. Done poorly, it is one of the most disruptive.

Over two decades, we have built deep expertise across every dimension of the relocation journey — housing markets, immigration regulations, school systems, local administration. We know Brussels the way only experience can teach.

That knowledge has been earned dossier by dossier, family by family, across thousands of assignments. Today, Fisher works with multinational HR teams across sectors — financial services, professional services, technology, pharma and international institutions.

Our clients choose us because they know the person handling their programme is also the person picking up the phone.

How we work

The Fisher
difference

Three principles that have guided every dossier we have handled. They are not aspirational values on a wall. They are the way we actually work.
01
Personal accountability
When you work with Fisher, you always know who is responsible for your dossier. One contact. Direct access. No handovers, no escalation chains, no lost context.
02
Proactive communication
We do not wait for HR to chase us for updates. We communicate at every milestone — before a delay becomes a problem, before a deadline becomes a crisis.
03
Discretion and trust
Relocation involves sensitive personal information — family situations, financial data, health considerations. We handle every dossier with the discretion it deserves.
