You spent months finding
the right person.
Make sure they stay.

Settld Arabia sits between the offer letter and the first day. We take the entire relocation off your plate, look after your hire and their family from day one, and give you real-time visibility on every step.

The real cost of a failed relocation
Senior hire recruitment fee £50,000 – £80,000
Monthly cost of vacancy $4,000 – $9,000
Time to fill a senior role internationally 5 – 7 months
Total cost of a failed senior assignment Up to $1.25m
Settld Arabia Concierge per hire From £8,000
The maths
Protecting a £200k hire with our Concierge service costs less than 4% of the total investment you have already made in finding them.
The numbers that matter

International hiring into Saudi
is not getting easier.

5–7
months is the typical timeline to fill a senior international role in the Middle East — before relocation even begins. Every month that role sits empty costs you.

40%
of senior roles take more than 90 days to fill. Leadership gaps slow momentum, delay projects and create governance risk in regulated industries.

2x
the employee's annual salary is the typical total cost of vacancy and replacement when a senior hire fails. For a £200k executive, that is £400,000 written off.

What your HR team is dealing with
  • 😰
    No formal relocation process
    Most companies wing it every time. A shared document and a list of estate agents is not a relocation strategy.
  • 📵
    The hire is on their own after signing
    Visa, housing, schools, cars, banking, cargo. Nobody owns any of it. The candidate figures it out themselves.
  • 👨‍👩‍👧
    The family is the real risk
    71% of HR teams say spouse unhappiness is the number one reason international assignments fail. Not the role. The family.
  • 🔄
    Early departures cost everything
    A hire who leaves in year one means you start again. New search, new fees, another 5 to 7 months, another relocation. The cycle repeats.
What Settld Arabia does instead
  • ✓
    We take it all off your plate
    One handover call. From that point your coordinator owns every step of the relocation. Your HR team does not lift a finger.
  • ✓
    We look after the family, not just the hire
    Spouse orientation, school places before landing, community introductions. The family settling is what keeps the hire in post.
  • ✓
    You see exactly where everything stands
    A live dashboard showing visa status, housing, schools, arrival date and coordinator notes for every hire. No chasing.
  • ✓
    90 days of aftercare built in
    The first 90 days is when families decide to stay or go. We check in at 7, 30, 60 and 90 days and resolve any issues before they become reasons to leave.
How it works

One handover. Everything handled.

1
You refer the hire to us
The moment the offer is signed, you introduce your hire to Settld Arabia. One email. That is all we need from you.
2
We assign a dedicated coordinator
Your hire gets one person. A real coordinator on the ground in Riyadh who knows their name, their family and their situation.
3
We handle everything
Visa, housing, schools, car, banking, cargo, grocery shop, airport pickup. Every detail sorted before they land.
4
They arrive settled and productive
Your new hire walks into day one focused on the job. Family settled. Home ready. Kids in school. No distractions.
Full visibility

  • Instant alerts when action is needed from your side
  • One dashboard for your entire relocating workforce

What HR teams actually say.

★★★★★

We relocated three Directors into Riyadh in Q1. Every single one of them messaged HR on day three to say it was the smoothest move of their life. I have been in global mobility for eleven years. That has never happened before. Not once.

★★★★★

The dashboard alone was worth it. I could see exactly where each hire was at every stage without a single chase email. For a team managing multiple relocations simultaneously that is genuinely impressive.

★★★★★

We had a hire almost pull out three weeks before their start date because their family was struggling with the idea of the move. Settld Arabia spoke to the spouse directly and turned it around. We would have lost a six-figure hire without them.
