Rotterdam Industrial Expat Services
From the city docks to the westernmost terminals, the Rotterdam industrial cluster is one continuous economy of steel, energy, chemicals and cargo, staffed by internationals at every level, from process operators to plant directors. Employers here fight for scarce technical talent worldwide, and every hire who lands badly is a hire at risk of leaving.
We are the cluster’s relocation partner. For employers, a single point of contact who takes the entire landing off HR’s desk, from visa coordination to key handover. For workers, a personal guide who understands industrial life, respects shift work and stays reachable after the boxes are unpacked. It is a niche no one else serves, and we serve it deeply.
Who this is for
- Industrial employers in the Rotterdam port cluster hiring internationally
- Technical professionals arriving for plant, terminal or maintenance roles
- HR teams that want relocation off their plate but under their eye
- International workers already here whose paperwork was never done properly

Frequently asked questions
How does billing work for companies?
Per relocation or under a framework agreement, invoiced directly to the company with a clear defined scope per employee. Rates are confirmed during an intake conversation about your typical hires.
Our people work in shifts across several sites. Can you handle that?
It is our daily bread. Appointments are planned per person around their roster and site, and we accompany each worker so no visit to a desk is wasted.
Many of our contracts are short-term. Does relocation support still pay off?
Short contracts are where poor landings cost the most, in no-shows, early leavers and payroll problems. Registerable temporary housing and a correct registration route give a six-month hire a clean start and a clean exit.
Give your international workers a real landing
One conversation about your hires, and relocation stops being HR’s problem.
