“Secondly, we are highly service oriented, incorporating our human-to-human approach, and the partnership we are always looking for is been proven to be highly appreciated by our clients and even called distinctive compared to our competitors. Our client satisfaction scores and our promotor scores are the best in the field.
Boxx global expat solutions is the biggest independent global mobility firm in the Benelux. We invited Dennis van Proosdij and Rens van Oers to tell us more about the firm and how it came to achieve the phenomenal success it enjoys today. Over the past 11 years Boxx has grown from startup to a thought leader position. A privately-owned company owned and managed by its CEO, the firm’s independency reflects its working philosophy, as Dennis emphasises.
Dennis van Proosdij, owner and CEO:
mobility service provider that is prepared to really offer the full range of global mobility services on a global scale under full own responsibility (even when working together with other vendors on behalf of the client). This means one contact, one contract and one invoice (global responsibility).
“Our unique business model is our self built international network of workforce mobility specialists, comprising over 300 partner companies in more than 80 countries. A robust framework which we have built with our heads and hearts,
which at Boxx we named Frame. This working model allows us to combine speed of service with in-depth local knowledge anywhere on the planet. This results in unmatched quality of service against a competitive price. To further enhance the chain, Boxx has four knowledge and management hubs in Achel (HQ in Belgium), Amsterdam (Netherlands), Hong Kong and Boston (US). Providing supreme services, pro-active solutions and ROI for clients, is what defines our work ethics.”
“Finally, we have an unprecedented high percentage of people coming from the inside of multinational companies. By attracting people with an HR background at multinationals, we really know the pains, challenges and practical problems our clients are facing on an everyday basis. Instead of being an advisor, you might see us as a partner of our clients’ HR departments. Our knowledge and support does not stop at the HR department, we can also intermediate between HR and the business lines.”
Supporting a wide range of clients, from global multinational companies to smaller companies with a global mobile workforce which can consist of international business visitors, short/long term assignees, local hires attracted from abroad and/ or foreign executives/directors, Boxx has to work closely with each client right from the start to ensure that they receive the service they need, as Rens explains.
Drawing on Boxx’s vast experience in this dynamic and ever evolving market, Rens has strong knowledge of the global mobility industry, and is keen to share this with us. “Over the past few years we see a shift from global mobility matters only is about expats/ long term assignees to it concerns mainly short terms assignees or international (frequent) business travellers. Employees are not always willing to move to another country with their families for a relatively long period. There are a lot more shorter, for instance project based, assignments or employees travelling back to their families during weekends. This creates new challenges for employers and the service providers.
“To ensure that we provide our clients with the services they require, we start our client focused approach from the moment we start working with them. First of all, and most importantly, we listen to our clients and have attention for their needs and look out for the personal satisfactions of the expats involved as well. Together with the client we define the value adding factors they are looking for, which as you can imagine can be very different and specific for various clients. This is what we like to call “real partnership”. Not only looking to do the job
“Additionally, the market has changed so it is no longer only big multinational companies facing challenges, but these relatively smaller companies even more as they have difficulties in identifying their opportunities/risks and how they can deal with this having limited access to resources. Also, finding the correct information for this online is very hard as the internet provides too much information that it is hard to identify what information is to be trusted. to be done, but also pro-actively assist with further opportunities or defining risks, including giving enough attention to the client that this requires. “Assisting clients with decision-making processes by providing them with the required insight in global mobility matters at hand such as quantification of risks/opportunities and explain consequences of the choices that can be made.

We are also differentiating our service and price levels more to be able to meet our clients’ needs as we understand that not all clients desire the highest service level or the lowest price available.”
