We invest time in really getting to know each client and every assignee, thus enabling us to provide a truly human-centric service. A deeper dive into K2 Group Founded in 2002 and headquartered in the UK, K2 Group has evolved into a global leader in mobility and related services. Unlike competitors rooted in removals or property sectors, our origins in HHG/move management and HR allowed us to take a consultative, client-centric approach from the start. Our early success stemmed from streamlining the household goods shipping process for organizations with varying transfer volumes, providing a fully managed service through a network of accredited partners. As our reputation grew, clients sought our expertise beyond shipping, leading to the expansion to destination services in 2008. To support this growth, we expanded our global presence, establishing operations in France, Sweden, Singapore, Australia, South Africa, the USA, the UAE, Brazil, Romania, and most recently, China - in Q4 2024. To further enrich our service offering, we expanded into Relocation Accounting (Expense Management), Client Advisory, and Assignment Management Services in 2016, which enabled us to provide clients with end-to-end mobility solutions. In 2017, we formally launched K2 Bespoke, a VIP/executive relocation service offering, which has since grown to include a global team of 30, and which has established itself as the industry leader in this mobility space. In 2018, we acquired Harbour HR, a small, London-based immigration and HR consultancy. This acquisition was part of a strategic venture into the global immigration market, and is the foundation from which we grew our outstanding global Immigration team. Our growth has been supported by significant investments in technology. In 2023, we developed AlphaTech, our in-house technology division, through which we have built proprietary systems for case management, implemented compliance tracking, and set up service automation, all of which has enhanced our agility and the quality of the services we deliver. Over close to 25 years, K2 has grown significantly, developing a suite of service offerings. We wanted to give each of these offerings its own identity, so in 2026, we chose to rebrand, transitioning from K2 Corporate Mobility to K2 Group. Each K2 offering/brand shares the same values, contributes to K2’s world-class NPS® of 82 and it’s Great Place To Work® accreditation, and is driven by the same unwavering commitment to human-centric service delivery. However, each brand has its own speciality: · K2 Relocate – Delivers the full suite of relocation services across the globe, via a fully managed service model. · K2 Bespoke – Delivers the full suite of relocation services to organisations’ VIP or business-critical populations. Operates globally, via a fully managed service model. · K2 X Border – Delivers the full suite of immigration services across the globe. Services include immigration consultancy; document handling; visa application management; and permits and residency application management. · K2 Indx – Delivers advisory and assignment management services across the globe. Services include development of a mobility strategy; programme, policy and process design/review; policy counselling; and cost governance processes. · K2 AlphaTech – K2’s inhouse technology team. Delivers tailored, highly efficient and user-friendly solutions for all K2 brands and their customers. · Twelve Degrees – K2’s inhouse stakeholder communication agency. Delivers personalised, targeted and demonstrably impactful marketing collateral for all K2 brands and their customers. Across all of our brands, K2 takes the weight and stress of relocation away from our clients with distraction-free solutions which work for their business and their people. Of paramount importance to us is taking the time to get to know each and every client, thus keeping our business true to our mission statement: ‘because it’s personal’. With 15 offices across 11 countries and a partner network which spans 186 countries, K2 has a truly global reach. We recognise that with this reach comes responsibility: we must operate as a responsible global citizen. To ensure that we do this, we have made multiple sustainability commitments, including establishing a partnership with EcoVadis, a global sustainability ratings company who make an ongoing assessment of our sustainability credentials and progress. We currently hold an EcoVadis Gold Medal, which puts us within the top 5% of all companies rated in 2025. Delivering the exemplary level of service that we do and ensuring that we do not falter in our sustainability journey is only possible because every K2 employee is committed to our mission and vision. For us, our employees are our family. Their wellbeing and their professional development is a top priority, as evidenced by our Great Place To Work® certification; by the range of initiatives (e.g flexible working, charity days, active social calendar) and opportunities (training, secondments, international transfers) that we offer; and by the fact that People & Culture is one of the six foundational pillars of Kinetic, our five-year business strategy which defines the way in which we will grow until 2027.
