‘Global Mobility: Driving Change’
We'd like to invite everyone from the Scandinavian region working in the Global HR and Mobility spectrum to join us to once again tune in on the rapidly changing structure of the workforce.
At this enriching networking session, our experienced panel of speakers from Aker Solutions, ECA International, Sirva and NES Advantage Solutions will discuss how changing demographics are impacting move types; which traps and challenges can be hidden when using localization as a mean to avoid costs and complexities of expat assignments and what to consider when the Global Mobility Manager needs to balance business requirements with costs and available resources.
The event will be hosted by the Aker Solutions and led by senior management from NES Advantage Solutions; Scott Radford, Global Mobility Director, and Lone Skriver, Global Mobility Regional and Business Development Manager.
The event will take place at the centrally-located building of Aker Solutions at Jåttåvågveien 10, 4020 Stavanger, Norway on the 12th September from 8.00-12.00.
Refreshments will be available.
