A coordinator or driver waits at the arrivals gate of Henri Coandă International Airport with the employee's name visible, tracks the flight in real time in case of delays, and drives them directly to their booked accommodation. For someone arriving after a long flight, in an unfamiliar country, this removes one very tiring unknown from the day.
Before the flight even leaves, we reserve a furnished apartment or aparthotel close to your office, so the first week doesn't start with an hour-long commute layered on top of jet lag. Bookings account for length of stay, proximity, and whether the employee is traveling with family.
Once the employee is settled temporarily, we shortlist longer-term listings based on two things that matter more than most: how long the commute actually takes, and whether the rent fits the agreed housing budget. Viewings are accompanied, so questions about the building, the lease, or the neighborhood get answered on the spot.
Not every long-term lease comes furnished, and buying furniture for a two or three year assignment rarely makes sense. We coordinate delivery and setup with local rental providers, matched to the layout and size of the apartment the employee has chosen.
A Romanian SIM card and a home internet connection are arranged early, often during the temporary accommodation period, so working remotely or simply staying in touch with home isn't held up by paperwork or appointment scheduling once the employee is on their own.
A short guided walk around the new neighborhood, pointing out the grocery store, the pharmacy, and a gym if that's relevant to the employee. It's a small gesture that tends to matter more than it sounds like it should, especially in the first two weeks.
To be clear about where our role ends: we do not handle visa applications, work permit processing, or any legal aspect of the transfer. Those matters typically sit with a company's legal counsel or a specialized immigration provider, and we recommend HR departments keep that separate. Our coordination begins once the operational side, arrival and settling in, needs a hand, and it stops well short of anything requiring legal advice.
