Europe on behalf of the judges. “This company impressed the judges with


its deep commitment to ethical, sustainable, and socially responsible practices. With a strong ESG ethos across global operations – and standout initiatives like pro bono immigration consulting – it sets a powerful example of purpose-driven business.” Coline Michaux, Communication, Marketing & Sustainability Manager of Eres Relocation Europe accepted the award saying ‘Thank you very much. I'm very honoured to be here tonight and to represent my company, Eres Relocation. We have put so much effort in in 2024 and the years


before in terms of ESG, and I'm really happy to come back home with this award. Asked why ESG is important in today’s world she said,


“Because the world is evolving. Global mobility isn't just about moving people. I think it's also about taking our responsibility as a company to make it more ethical and more focused on the humans and on the environment. Commenting on the evening and meeting up with


colleagues in the industry she said, “I think it's a good opportunity to share ideas and best practices and to share new ideas and innovations on all kinds of topics in our industry”.


CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY & ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT The


entry illustrates through its leadership how


employees are empowered to forge creative connections in the context of ESG. Access to a wellness platform, mindfulness and an annual company gathering strengthen the bonds across the staff and leadership team in the various locations. Encouragement to support charitable work and activities such as beach cleaning are also evident. A well-crafted commentary addresses the creative


aspects that the company has employed to produce a quality experience combining ethical and social practices. Clearly the EcoVadis Gold Medal, awarded to the


company in December 2024, was a pivotal moment on their environmental journey. As they state “Our ESG approach is embedded in everything we do, shaping the quality of our services and how we engage with our clients, employees and communities.”

addressed the creative connections, theme and the various aspects of ESG. It is good to see evidence of Eres Relocation’s leadership and governance, for example by setting up an ethics committee and the appointment of an ethics officer. Recycling and eco-friendly office supplies plus the provision of mindfulness to support wellbeing. Even adopting train travel over flights for internal business trips reinforces the commitment to reducing carbon emissions. As the Head judge commented, ‘’It is excellent to see


a mix of environmental, social and governance practices that all support a culture of ESG excellence and plans to take these forward and improve further in the future”. “At Eres, ESG isn’t just policy – it’s part of our


culture”, they state. They explain, “Winning this award would recognize our achievements and inspire us to push even further. ESG excellence is an ongoing journey – one of progress, innovation, and commitment”. Well done, a worthy winner with purpose.
