Crown World Mobility launches EMEA Immigration Practice

Jun 01 | 2015

Crown World Mobility has launched a comprehensive in-house immigration practice for the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region to complement its suite of relocation services.

The new division, which will have its headquarters in London and be led by Benjamin Sookia, will offer the full spectrum of immigration services, including visa, residency, government liaison, full tracking and management. 

The move sees Crown World Mobility offer one of the most extensive ranges of in-house immigration and relocation services amongst the mobility providers, combining its global reach with local immigration specialists. The company currently boasts local immigration experts in more than 25 countries and is part of Crown Worldwide, which has offices in some 60 countries.

Benjamin Sookia has been appointed as immigration manager EMEA to oversee the delivery of corporate immigration services throughout the region, primarily focussing on compliance and quality of service.  Benjamin will report to Said Boskovic, Director of Global Immigration Services, and will also be responsible for developing a centralised and streamlined approach to Crown’s immigration services with the support of locally-based, in-house immigration specialists. He will oversee a team of more than 20.

Prior to joining Crown World Mobility, Benjamin worked as a compliance consultant, coordinating transactional immigration cases across complex jurisdictions. Most recently, he acted as a primary relationship contact for senior executives across a range of industries while working for a global immigration law firm.
