Ocean, with over 75 years of experience in shipping and relocation, has revolutionized its approach to relocation. This shift, initiated by Shlomit Drenger, Director of Business Development, allows the client unprecedented freedom. This freedom begins from the initial contact with the Journey Manager, at the very beginning of the process, when ‘just thinking’ about relocation. The Journey Manager, specially trained to assess the needs of the client, has Ocean’s core values at his finger-tips and uses these values to guide the client through the relocation process from the onset and throughout the whole process which could be 6 months, a year or more and not necessarily will the relocatee return to their country of origin.  They may return or stay in their new destination or they may relocate again to another destination.  It also depends on if the relocatee is moving as they were made a job offer or it may be a family that wants to try another way of living.

What is a Journey Manager and what does he do?

Your Journey Manager is your one point of contact, your own personal ambassador, champion and anchor throughout your relocation process.

He is experienced and specially trained to understand the individual and their family getting ready to leave the home they have known, and move to a home they have yet to meet. He understands that relocation is not a single event, but a process that can last years.

He is an expert at listening and observing. He is skilled at uncovering the client’s (and family’s) needs. He knows what, how and when to ask the questions that will build a deep understanding of family members and offer the appropriate solutions. The Journey Manager plans the entire relocation journey together with your family, ensuring that it fits your needs exactly.

He is your relocation partner, managing your relocation journey and creating with you the client, an interactive, personal, stable and stress-free relationship. He is the person you can turn to with any question, secure in the knowledge that you will always receive support.

He represents you and your needs to the in-house specialists who provide the solutions of your choosing from Ocean. He will do everything in his power to make sure things click into place, always to your complete satisfaction.

This synergistic, holistic, agile approach to Ocean’s clients is the key to success, even and especially during these uncertain times. This reframing of the role of the relocation company has expanded Ocean’s ability, reach and success.
