Mobility moments: Greta’s story

Depending on the role, employee mobility needs aren’t one-size-fits-all. Senior team leaders need access to mobile-ready candidates to quickly fill positions on their teams. Human resource members need an integrated platform with readily available data to help their people get moving. Project managers need to be ready to go wherever they’re needed and have the best resources available to settle into their assignments. In this series, we highlight stories of people navigating the world of mobility with Vialto Partners.

Greta, Sales Manager

Greta is a sales manager who’s looking for an opportunity to take her career to the next level. She has previous experience working on an assignment in Singapore several years ago—but her time there was overshadowed by the difficulties it took to get to Singapore, like delayed start times and time-consuming mobility obligations. While she’s excited about finding a new opportunity, Greta is concerned about how the move will impact her family and what her career prospects might be.

Getting Greta going for the next move

Greta is looking for an integrated mobility experience that will accelerate her career, make the transition times easier, give her a home that suits her family and aid the adjustment process.

She needs a mobility platform that’s:

Efficient

• A process that respects and values her time, so she can focus on acclimating and doing her job
• An app that centralizes everything to manage the mobility assignment that’s available 24/7

Worry-free

• Confidence that family will be happy and well cared for
• Regular updates but not excessive updates
• Continuity and connections with people back home

Compliant

• Provide data once, reducing admin
• Everyone works together, so things are done consistently and seamlessly
• Everything is tracked, easy to check and secure

Greta capitalizes on opportunities

Step one: Secure opportunity
Greta gets a message via the Vialto Mobility platform saying she’s been selected for an opportunity. She contacts support resources for information and taps into the community of former expats for advice. After talking to her family, she messages Kimi to accept the assignment

Step two: Let’s get moving
Greta receives a checklist via a mobile app of the tasks she needs to complete to get her into local systems and get the assignment going. A virtual reality tour allows Greta to tour different neighborhoods as she hunts for housing.

Then, a notification on Greta’s phone takes her directly to her immigration file via the Vialto Partners mobility app, where she can fill out a questionnaire for her visa. It’s already been partially completed based on the information she provided when she created her profile.

Next, a digital assistant, trained in Greta’s policy, preferences, and situation, asks if she has any further questions. Greta can text questions through a chat bot in an app, voice assistant or through a web portal. Benji provides relevant, real-time answers or connects her to a mobility specialist.

While traveling frequently for work, Greta’s mobility app allows her to stay current with local compliance requirements—even for short stays. Biometrics on her phone allow Greta to manage who has access to her information, while her mobility platform lets her share data directly with government agencies.
