EuRA's People

I am the Business Development Director at TTHCurzon Relocation and have worked in both Sales and Business Development within the UK and Global Corporate Relocation Industry for over 20 years. I truly love the industry we work in, for everyday is different. One of my key strengths is being able to forge and maintain very productive business relationships which is crucial in winning and maintaining clients in this very competitive industry. I have established an extensive network of contacts throughout the wider Relocation world, many of whom I would regard as friends as well as work colleagues. I pride myself on being an individual, that Clients, Prospects and colleagues have trust in as well as being confident that I always do my utmost to ensure I provide the very highest level of advice and guidance on both a process and policy front. Outside of work, I am married with three grown up children and have been a school Governor for over 20 years and I am a past chair of the Association of Relocation Professionals.

As my mother Dominique was the founder of one of the pioneering Relocation companies in France back in 1991, this industry has been a part of my life since I was 7. The first office of the company also happened to be where our gaming console was located so I remember fondly having to keep quiet while my mother cold-called HR managers who had never even heard of Relocation! 

I first pursued a master’s degree in private law with a specialization in Contracts Law at Université Jean Moulin Lyon III, before completing my training by attending EM Lyon Business School’s specialized master’s Degree in International Management and Law. 

It was only in 2014, after several experiences in Fortune 500 companies and Law firms, that a specific legal question brought me to work for Home Conseil Relocation for the first time and that’s when I fell in love with the Global Mobility industry as it fosters a human-centric yet innovation-prone business. 

From there, the path to take over the company (a move completed in 2017) was natural as I benefited from the shared experience of my mother and some of the most seasoned and welcoming professionals from this great industry, we call our friends. 

Aside from my deep passion for cooking, I intend to bring to the Board this uniquely personal take on the industry as well as my past experiences sitting on Boards of French and International associations to strengthen the Executive Group and serve EuRA’s southern region. 

Johanna started her career within Global Mobility in 2007. She has been the main company representative at numerous industry conferences around the globe for many years. She attends and participates in the sessions and loves that EuRA has brought her to all corners of the world. In 2010 Johanna received the Global Mobility Specialist Certification, GMS and in June 2021 she was appointed the Managing Director role at Nimmersion AB. 

Johanna is highly specialised in immigration within Global Mobility. That being said, after 15 years, having filled the roles as Relocation consultant, Immigration Specialist, Director of Quality, Director of Operations, and today Managing Director her knowledge is both deep and broad. In addition, she’s also passionate about educating start-up companies about recruitment policies when hiring employees from abroad. 

Previous work experience in the restaurant management field is paramount in handling stressful situations while still maintaining a high service level. She’s very empathic and want to see the good in people and opportunities. This helps her to give daily support to clients and employees. The most important value she teaches her children is to treat all people equally, no matter how they look, the way they dress, whom they love, their occupation or the colour of their skin. 

From her administrator positions, Johanna is well-organised and always on top of things. By nature she’s calm and always eager to contribute where she can and serve other people. Being organized has helped Johanna in managing work, children and her hobbies in a balanced way. 

Growing up in a small country with lots of innovation has been inspiring for her. Johanna has worked with many of the Swedish start-ups and unicorns known worldwide and trained their recruitment teams about Global Mobility. This among other experiences is something she’s more than willing to share with the other members of EuRA. EuRA has been an important part of Johanna’s career and she has always felt the support from other members juggling the same challenges but in different countries. Johanna would be honoured to serve the northern region as an Executive group member. EuRA give so much to their members and this would be a great way for Johanna to give some in return. 

Johanna holds a master degree in Service Management from Lunds University, Sweden. 

Marie O’Neill is the owner and Managing Director of EER.  Under her visionary leadership, EER has grown to become one of the Middle East’s leading relocation, immigration and corporate services companies.  She also has an unrivalled industry knowledge and a proven track record of leadership that would make her an invaluable member of the EuRA board.  

As well as being a member of EER’s Senior Leadership Team, before becoming co-owner in December 2021, Marie was also a member of the TIRA board and currently serves on the EER advisory board.  Her insightful strategic planning skills and visionary business development approach have been crucial in facilitating growth and progress in her past and current leadership roles and have been regularly utilised in industry events around the world when she has been asked to act as a panellist or speaker.  She is also well known as an advocate for taking an inclusive and collaborative approach that underscores the importance of partnership and sustainability in the pursuit of prosperity and opportunity.      

EER has been a member of EuRA for over 10 years and is the only company in the Middle East to currently bear its seal, an honour that Marie and her co-owner are extremely proud of.   Marie understands the value of being part of such a prestigious organisation and would relish the opportunity to contribute further and make an even more positive impact to the industry as a whole.  Given EER’s unique position in the dynamic and crucial Middle East region, and Marie’s adept knowledge of growing a successful business in this nuanced marketplace, there is great potential for her to make lasting, productive contributions as a EuRA board member moving forward.

I founded ReloCare in 2008 and grew it into one of the leading immigration and relocation providers in the Czech Republic.

This transition was both a professional achievement and recognition of the quality we had built. Now, as Country Managing Partner of Eres Relocation Czech Republic  continue to drive industry standards forward while staying rooted in local expertise and strong client relationships.
