Did you know that 18 of our colleagues have chosen to cross borders and move to Belgium? Hear from Jordan Cossu's experience, Key Account Manager since 2023.
"It has been a few months now since I moved from France to Belgium to start an exciting new role at Quality Assistance.
Although I was thrilled at the idea of joining the company, I was also aware of the challenges involved in arriving in a new country, such as navigating the administrative formalities, finding a home, and integrating into the company and the local culture.
But that was without taking into account the kindness and the support provided by Quality Assistance throughout the whole process. Even before my arrival, I was given a comprehensive and educational guide about living in Belgium. I was also particularly impressed by the support I received when searching for a home and moving house. And last but not least, there is always something to do to get together and people who are happy to welcome you and share a good time, whether you like sports, board games or DIY."
