The Power of Partnership

EER was recently honoured by Bristol Global as their 2020 EMEA Destination Partner of the Year. It was a glowing testament to the hard work of our team and a reflection of their passion in going the extra mile for our clients and partners. It was also an acknowledgment from a respected industry leader that EER knows how to stand out from the crowd. Following the challenges of the last year, we were extremely proud to receive this award and to have our hard work receive such recognition. But it also got us thinking about our experience with collaboration within the industry and the power of partnership.

Industry Insights

Working in partnership with others is especially important in the global mobility industry. As more and more organisations recognise the value in sourcing talent from international markets, our work in relocation and immigration services is vital to fostering success. Businesses that require assistance in securing and relocating assignees must have confidence in our ability to provide experienced knowledge and expert solutions. Unrivalled local knowledge surrounding immigration procedures and expectations is directly connected to how smooth an on-boarding process can be. That is why partnerships, such as the one we share with Bristol Global, are so effective when assisting with client needs. By building chains of experience and maintaining active relationships, our industry can operate in a wider sphere of dynamic geographies. Every country differs greatly in terms of their specific requirements for relocation and visas, often compounding those unique attributes with constantly evolving policies and initiatives. Here in the UAE, the ambitious vision of our government continues to drive change in immigration policies and societal structure, which necessitates the presence of an in-country resource who always has the latest information. That is why the development of cross-border and cross-company collaboration enables our industry to provide a more comprehensive service to clients. At EER we can provide expert insight into the regions in which we operate, the UAE, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait, that not only help to streamline employee mobility, but that assist assignees with becoming acclimatised more effectively. We can then, in turn, work with other providers in locations we are less familiar with and thereby significantly widen the reach of our collective partnerships.

Learning From Each Other

Collaborative partnerships, both within and beyond our industry, are undeniably valuable for the strategic goals of any business. They were essential elements in our efforts to maintain business continuity during the Covid-19 pandemic and we anticipate that organisations that continue to utilise them in the future will be the better for it. One key reason for that is how much we have to learn from each other. Whether that is in professional expertise, creative ideas or operational methodologies, our capacity to discover, learn and be inspired is limitless. Our Senior Leadership team are regular panelists and guests on cross-industry webinars that cover a range of topics and include participants from all over the world. These sessions provide a forum for discussion in which ideas are shared and generated on how we can better service the clients we work with, then even sometimes uncover cautionary tales of what to avoid! At EER we have been able to share details of our advanced digitization programme and how embracing the possibilities of a more virtual world marketplace can increase efficiency and profitability. By working together in collaborative relationships, we can make our own organisations stronger and improve industry performance as a whole.

Long-Term Vision

Throughout our 15 year history, EER has always been committed to adapting our approach to better suit our clients and to seek out ways to positively contribute to the industry. That is why establishing and maintaining long-term cross-industry relationships is a central part of our company ethos. We believe in going above and beyond for our clients and the partners we work with. Our aim is to develop trusted connections that reflect our reputation for reliability and communication. Industry-leading companies like Bristol Global share that commitment and it is through that mutually productive bond that we can create partnerships that will elevate the future for our organisations, our clients and our industry.
