- Advise employees on our relocation policies and guide them on various aspects of their move to the Netherlands until they have fully settled.
- Coordinate each part of the relocation process in line with time and budget requirements.
- Prepare residence permit application documents for employees and their family members, or coordinate the process with our immigration provider.
- Schedule appointments with the IND and municipality for employees upon their arrival in the Netherlands.
- Assist with residence registration, opening a bank account, obtaining insurance, and other settling-in tasks.
- Arrange temporary accommodation for employees and their families, including corporate apartments.

- Provide relocation cost breakdowns and related taxation details for payroll.
- Offer support for outbound relocations from the Netherlands to other JetBrains offices when needed.
- Contribute to local and global HR projects and initiatives.
- Support the local HR team and collaborate with other departments as necessary.
