NEW YORK CITY – [April 9, 2007] – Primacy Relocation, a leading provider of employee relocation and global assignment management services, today announced it has opened a New York City office in an effort to further support the needs of its clients operating in the northeast region. The new office is located at 245 Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan and will be supervised by Primacy’s Director of Global Operations, Jennifer White.
“New York is an international business hub and this expansion will further reinforce our commitment to providing localized service delivery to our clients,” said Michelle Vallejo, Primacy’s President, The Americas. “We have put in place a seasoned team of professionals with extensive industry experience to best meet the needs of this very important market.”
Primacy has recruited James Theophilakos, CRP, a professional with more than a decade of diversified experience within the global relocation services industry, to lead Destination Services for the New York office. Most recently, he held the role of Director of Relocation Services for a New York based real estate and relocation firm. Theophilakos has also held leadership roles encompassing both account management and client relationship/service management, both on- and off-site, for other global relocation companies.
Additional offices and professional resources across the globe allow Primacy to provide a wider range of services to its clients, both domestically and internationally. This expansion is the latest in a wave of recent acquisitions and office openings by Primacy. In December, Primacy’s Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) division announced the acquisition of Foursquare Relocation, increasing business unit revenues by nearly forty percent and expanding operations in London, Paris, Geneva and Amsterdam. Most recently, Primacy Asia announced the opening of a Hong Kong office, which will serve as the company’s Asia headquarters.
