Policy Review, Candidate Selection

With Sterling Lexicon by your side, you’ll have a dedicated account manager and a team of highly experienced and caring consultants to help you with:

  • The right strategy

Whether we start with an existing strategic framework or develop a new one, we’ll bring a comprehensive exploration and understanding of your company culture and goals together with our extensive knowledge of current industry practices, global markets and trends.

We’ll advise you on cost projections, immigration and tax compliance and risks, and the steps we recommend that you take to achieve the best results for your company and your employees.

  • The right people

We can help you build the tools to identify and select the best candidates for specific roles and locations and design competitive compensation and support packages that are aligned with your industry peers and current market data. 

Once your candidates accept a temporary assignment or a permanent move, we’ll work with them to ensure they fully understand the policy and know what to expect – from the total financial picture to what day-to-day living really looks like in the new location, all the way through to the ultimate end goals of the move.

“With Sterling Lexicon, we can see how the Argentina project was a success. Our relationship is based on continuous communication and proactivity against possible problems. It is difficult to pull off a project of this magnitude unless there is trust between the two companies.”

  • Temporary accommodation in the home or host country
  • Home search and full property management, including lease negotiations, deposits, inspections, and utility hook-ups
  • Spouse and partner career guidance and support
  • School searches and registrations

The Right Next Steps

When the time is right, we can manage all aspects of the departure and repatriation of your assignees, or advise you both on how to successfully transition to a localised, or host-country arrangement where feasible.

We’ll help you analyse the success of the assignment and continue the strategic planning conversations about how to make the most of the experience, the investment and the knowledge gained.
