“It gives us the flexibility we need. As a fast-growing team, we can hand over cases on an ad-hoc basis when we don't have capacity — and relokate activates within 24 hours. That's exactly what we were looking for.”

Head of People, Flink SE

About Flink

Flink has fundamentally shifted the retail landscape in Europe. With over €550 million in revenue, 160+ hubs, and an all-electric delivery fleet, they've grown from a disruptive startup into a resilient, sustainable powerhouse. Their multicultural team is their greatest competitive advantage — and keeping that team moving across borders is where relokate comes in.

The challenge

When you're scaling fast across Europe, immigration needs don't follow a schedule. Flink's hiring volume is dynamic — and they needed a partner who could match that pace. A traditional relocation setup with rigid structures didn't fit a company built on hyper-efficiency.

Their cases span the full spectrum: student visa holders transitioning to Blue Cards, job seeker visa conversions to skilled worker permits, EU mobility transfers from France or Sweden to Germany, and full relocations from outside the EU. Each case has different timelines, document requirements, and urgency levels. Flink needed a partner with a shared bias for action — ready when they are, without overhead when they're not.

The solution

relokate is Flink's dedicated immigration and relocation partner — always on, always ready. When a case arises, relokate activates within 24 hours with a dedicated Relocation Partner who handles the case end to end. The partnership scales with Flink's needs — whether that's one case or twenty.

Always-on platform

Flink's People team has permanent platform access. When a case arises, relokate activates within 24 hours — no setup, no delays.

All visa types covered

Student → Blue Card (§16b → §18g), job seeker → skilled worker, intra-EU mobility, and full non-EU relocations.

Branded talent hub

Every Flink hire gets a dedicated page with an interactive immigration checklist, family services, and a direct line to their Relocation Partner.

4–12 week timelines

Using the Business Immigration Service Berlin and accelerated procedures where eligible — because at Flink, speed matters.

Family services included

Spouse visas, children's residence permits, family reunification — our team handles the whole family, not just the employee.

One dedicated partner

One Relocation Partner who knows the case, the candidate, and how Flink works. No handoffs, no repeating yourself.

The Flink x relokate Talent Hub

Every Flink team member — whether new hire or existing employee — gets access to a dedicated talent hub built in Flink's branding. It includes an interactive immigration checklist with progress tracking and a full services overview for family reunification, permanent residency, citizenship, housing support, and city registration. All services are available at a 10% partner discount.
