About Us
At Nimmersion, we come to work every day because we love helping a diverse group of people forge new paths – those from all cultures, at all ages, with different jobs. They’re on a journey across the globe into the unknown. We bridge the gap by providing Smooth Arrivals, Easy Living, and Swift Departures.
Established in 1995, Nimmersion is one of the most innovative relocation and immigration companies in Europe.
We aim to:
- Efficiently respond to client needs
- Create stress-free, productive relocation experiences
- Empower international talents to succeed
With our collective expertise, we navigate housing markets, immigration agencies, and global partners, while our clients enjoy seamless transitions as they transfer staff around the world.
Nimmersion understands the impact of change, both on individuals and organizations.
In fact, we’re in the change business.
We lead the way – helping international talents succeed through our personal service and our Nimmersion Academy. We continually research, test, and evaluate tools and methodologies that benefit our clients. Professional Inspiration is one added value to our clients and is an online course with a human touch to demystify the Swedish workplace for our clients and facilitate their career success.
With a pulse on the flourishing startup tech scene in Sweden, we journey with these companies into larger markets helping them reach new levels of success. At the same time, our work on Global Mobility Policies is also rewarding as we work closely with traditional industries transferring talent both to and from Sweden.
Our Vision
We have bold ambitions, and we know our clients do too. That’s why we’re trailblazers in corporate relocation and immigration. It’s more than logistics. We empower international talents to succeed. We lead the way into new territories, opening paths to new opportunities – because we know a successful relocation means everything to our clients.
Our Mission
Nimmersion operates around four core values: Quality, Passion, Innovation, and Structure. These core values permeate everything we do, right down to the last email. They’re integral to our operations, define us as an employer, and determine our service trajectory.
