Managing a Corporate Group Move
Corporate travel planners, relocation managers, and HR business partners need solutions for group travel and extended stays based on business needs. Whether your need is managing rotations for knowledge transfer training, complex on-site systems installations, subject matter expert deployments to large infrastructure projects, or onsite audit or business project teams, Dwellworks Living has the global reach and housing solutions for your business.
We facilitate group moves for some of the world’s largest Fortune 1000s, with less than 100 or more than 500 employees. Our team is there for your employees from the initial sign of a contract to the final employee departure from their trip. Plus, we can save at least 20% compared to hotels.
Read on to see specific examples of our past group moves.
Housing for Employees From Any Industry
Dwellworks Living has 80,000-plus accommodations in 125 countries. This means wherever your industry has a new office opening, a specialized training session, or an intern cohort need, we can accommodate. In locations where temporary housing options are limited, our local experts negotiate with local landlords to transform long-term unfurnished housing into comfortable and conveniently furnished accommodations for teams on assignment far from home. Here are just some of the industries we’ve worked with:
The energy industry: We’ve supported housing needs for project teams in Brazil, Indonesia, and Norway, Canada and more as well as remote sites around the world.

The technology sector: For the last 15 years, we’ve provided housing for group moves for one of the largest technology companies in the world. We’ve facilitated their moves in the US, Canada, Costa Rica, and Mexico.
Legal, Finance, and IT Services: Group project assignments for these clients are often in major metros and downtown locations where temporary living accommodations can be at a premium. Clients typically prefer to have their teams placed in a single location, since project work can have early and late hours, and proximity facilitates their ease of work. For all these reasons, sourcing the perfect housing solution can be a challenge, and one that Dwellworks Living has risen to on multiple occasions finding solutions in markets like London, New York, and Hong Kong (Greater Bay Area).

Intern housing: In high-profile markets like Silicon Valley and New York City, working with candidates who take their summer living experience and location into account when considering internships and job offers, we recently received stellar client feedback and a renewed contract for even more extensive intern housing solutions coverage going forward.

How Corporate Housing Saves Travel Buyers Money
There is always strength in numbers. While working solely with a travel management company to arrange housing, airfare, and other expenses can be easy, choosing to also partner with a corporate housing provider like Dwellworks Living is as close as a company can get to negotiating rates directly with the manager of their selected accommodations.
Our years of relationships with our more than 3,500 corporate housing partners worldwide allows us to negotiate prices and deploy local, in-market resources to source ‘off-market’ and private options that are the best fit for a client-specific need.
Global solutions providers like Dwellworks Living not only simplify your sourcing, booking, and service, we also negotiate discounts versus ‘rack rates’ that can create thousands of dollars of savings annually.
Last-Minute Housing Changes? Not a Problem
We know things change. Personal issues come up for employees, travel arrangements can change, and business plans have to be adjusted. Dwellworks Living is prepared for it all.
Each group move begins with a dedicated Program Manager who communicates every change with our team. In a recent move with a global retail corporation, we managed 287 interns in 4 different cities for more than 20,000 nights. When the corporation restructured a move to one city, Dwellworks Living was ready.
Our corporate housing partners have unique relationships with nearby hotels to accommodate late employee adds or the need to switch housing locations altogether, whatever the reason.
Why Use Dwellworks Living for Your Group Project Needs?
Dwellworks Living, as a global solutions provider, provides temporary living options for traveling teams for any client project or program, across a full portfolio of properties, in hundreds of cities and over 125 countries.
Group Moves and Projects are often high-profile. While some projects include advance preparation, others can come together quickly when clients win new business, acquire new operations, or need to pivot their talent deployment and strategy. Whatever the business reason, Dwellworks Living solutions deliver the following unique advantages and support:
- Experience and execution. We’ve managed hundreds of client project needs, from small teams to hundreds of employees heading to project, training, or implementation sites. In most instances, we’ll already have housing options in our portfolio, and for new locations, our global sourcing team can quickly onboard properties based on well-established research, qualification, and compliance protocols.
- Housing Options from Economy to Executive. Many group assignments focus on reasonable costs since the projects can be an internal overhead expense or a client pass-through, where cost containment is critical. In other instances, we’ve been asked to source housing for investment banking executives assessing acquisition and market opportunities. We match the housing solution to the client’s request – and deliver not only market-competitive rates but service and support, regardless of the average daily rate for the stay. Our service is business-to-business accommodations solutions and support with a single global approach to customer excellence.
- Unmatched Local Presence. Dwellworks Living does more than access options across our portfolio of 80,000 vetted solutions. Because of our parent-company affiliation, we can access on-the-ground experts from our Destination Services parent company Dwellworks and their local insights and recommendations to make your employees’ stay both more enjoyable and more productive.
Xplore App
