ExpatRide’s Unique Position

In an industry full of travel providers and logistics specialists, ExpatRide stands alone.

We are the only company in the world fully dedicated to transportation in the relocation and global mobility industry. Everything we do is built to support Global HR, Mobility Teams, and Relocation Management Companies (RMCs).

For more than a decade, our mission has been simple yet transformative: to deliver mobility solutions that are personal, consistent, and sustainable.

When people take a closer look at what we do, one question always arises: why don’t we have any competition? Why is there only ExpatRide offering transportation services for the Global Mobility Industry, when there are at least a dozen Cultural Awareness Training programs and countless other support services? On the surface, the opportunity is clear. But once you scratch beneath it, the reasons become obvious.

Built for Mobility, Not Travel or Tourism

Most companies that work with mobility do so as an extension of their main business. But ExpatRide was born from within the industry itself.

  • Travel Management Companies (TMCs) focus on short-term business trips. They are excellent at flights and hotels but not built for relocations and long-term assignments.
  • Destination Service Providers (DSPs) help employees settle in locally, but their scope and standards vary from country to country.
  • Traditional car rental companies are designed for tourists and short-term renters. Their systems focus on transactions, not policies or compliance.

ExpatRide bridges the gap between them all. We combine global reach, specialized transportation, verified billing, and white-glove services within one unified, mobility-first model.

Today, our services cover more than 170 countries, offering clients a single global partner and a single point of contact for their needs.

Concierge-level service and VIP Experience

Every relocation tells a personal story: a new country, a new job, and new challenges. ExpatRide ensures this transition is as seamless as possible through concierge-level service and personal attention.

Our VIP Program was created in collaboration with some of the largest RMCs to match their clients’ needs and processes. This program delivers a level of care that TMCs and rental car companies cannot match. It ensures every relocating executive, assignee, or family receives a premium experience that is personal and according to Global HR’s policies.

All our services are guided by Global Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to guarantee consistent quality and compliance everywhere we operate. Yet we also recognize the need for cultural and regulatory flexibility – our teams are empowered to adapt to local regulations and cultural norms to deliver a smooth and compliant experience everywhere.

For clients, this means predictable results, fewer surprises, and a globally aligned service model.


Global Billing – Verified at Every Step

Billing accuracy might not sound glamorous, but it is one of the foundations of trust in global mobility partnerships.

ExpatRide’s global billing system was built specifically for RMCs and HR departments. Every invoice undergoes a multi-step verification process to ensure consistency with supplier agreements and service documentation. If something looks off, we fix it before the client ever sees it. We offer global centralized billing; invoicing in multiple currencies; bank accounts in Australia, Belgium (EU), Singapore, UK, and USA to accept local payments

The result is transparency, reliability, and a smoother workflow for everyone involved.


A Network That Can’t Be Replicated

Behind every ExpatRide service is a network of trusted global partners developed over more than ten years. ExpatRide operates across more than 170 destinations worldwide. Building a network of this scale doesn’t happen overnight. Each supplier is selected for reliability, compliance, and customer care. Together, they form a global ecosystem that combines local expertise with consistent service standards worldwide.

This is not just a list of contacts: it’s relationships, reliability, and a proven ability to deliver. And we protect that trust carefully. If a supplier can’t consistently deliver the level of service our clients deserve, we simply won’t continue with them. Our partners depend on us for quality and consistency, and we’ll never compromise on that.

Many of our suppliers go beyond standard cooperation. Together, we’ve created tailored expat programs to specifically service the Global Mobility industry. So, not only is ExpatRide unique, we also built unique programs with our suppliers to further strengthen our ability to deliver what our client needs.


Sustainability: Making Mobility a Benefit to the Planet

At ExpatRide, we believe that global mobility can be part of the solution to a better planet. Through our white paper series “Driving Sustainability: The Case for Eco-Conscious Assignments in Global Mobility”, we demonstrate how relocation can actively reduce environmental impact, you can read more here.

We promote three key principles:

  1. Sustainable expatriate policies that encourage holistic and purposeful assignments.
  2. Sustainability and cultural training that helps assignees make environmentally responsible choices.
  3. Partnerships with Relocation Management Companies (RMCs) and suppliers that focus on ESG goals and sustainable supply chains.

ExpatRide integrates these principles in everything we do. Sustainability is not an afterthought. It is part of who we are and how we believe global mobility can make a positive difference.

For us, it’s not just about moving people, it’s about moving responsibly.


The ExpatRide Team – Global Citizens Dedicated to the Global Mobility Industry

Our team is one of ExpatRide’s greatest strengths. Most of our colleagues have lived abroad and experienced the challenges of relocation themselves. They know what it’s like to start over in a new country, to navigate unfamiliar systems, and to depend on reliable support. This lived experience defines how we serve our clients every day.

We’re also proud of something rare in today’s corporate world: no one at ExpatRide has left the company in more than five years. This level of stability ensures continuity, long-term client relationships, and a consistent service experience across borders.

At the heart of this culture is our founder and CEO, Jesper Lovendahl. Having lived abroad for 17 years across Singapore, Germany, and the United States, Jesper brings both personal insight and professional vision to the global mobility field. His leadership extends beyond ExpatRide: as Co-Chair of the Worldwide ERC Sustainability Council and a member of the Supplier Council, he actively contributes to shaping the industry’s future; by promoting collaboration, sustainability, and innovation across the global mobility community.

Together, our team and leadership embody what ExpatRide stands for: global citizens serving global citizens, guided by empathy, expertise, and a genuine passion for the global mobility industry. ExpatRide stands alone as a true partner, fully invested in the success and evolution of global mobility itself.

Our people don’t just manage relocations; they understand them, because they’ve lived them.


Countless Challenges

Over the years, we’ve faced countless challenges – and we love it when our partners bring us new ones. Every challenge is a chance to think outside the box, find a better solution, and refine the way we work.

This journey has made us more flexible, more inventive, and ultimately, more valuable. It’s the accumulation of all these experiences that has shaped us into the company we are today.

Of course, not everything worked. Along the way, we’ve experimented with services like assisting expats with buying and selling cars. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but we quickly realized it didn’t fit our mission.

Those experiences weren’t failures – they were lessons. They reminded us that our real expertise lies in relocation and mobility services. By staying focused, we’ve built knowledge and capabilities that truly set us apart.

Kudos to Our Partners

None of this would have been possible without our partners. They’ve trusted us with challenges big and small, and they’ve given us the opportunity to grow, adapt, and prove ourselves.

For that, we owe a huge thank you. It’s because of your trust that we’ve been able to create a service model that’s flexible, reliable, and designed to make life easier for you and your clients.


Our Unique Position

So why do we have no competition? The answer lies not in the lack of opportunity, but in the depth of what we have built – an international network, years of hard-earned experience, a reputation for service and trust, and entirely focused on and tailored to the global mobility industry.

ExpatRide is not a travel company. We are a true mobility partner. Everything we do is designed for the unique needs of global HR, RMCs, and relocating employees.

We combine:

  • Concierge-level and VIP service
  • Global consistency with centralized billing
  • Exclusive supplier programs tailored to expat needs
  • Sustainability as a guiding principle in all operations
  • A stable, empathetic, and globally minded team

ExpatRide does not just manage transportation. We help companies move people with confidence, care, and responsibility. Because when relocation is done right, it does more than move employees. It moves organizations, cultures, and the world forward.
