Dean’s responsibilities also include securing new client partnerships, and creating greater brand awareness for Odyssey in the relocation marketplace.

“Global Mobility has experienced a tremendous amount of change over the last several years. Now more than ever, employers are looking to attract and retain the best talent. Mobility still plays a key role in helping a company carry out this initiative,” said Rischitelli. “Companies today are looking for their global mobility provider to help them customize a program that fits best with their needs and the needs of their employees. They want the flexibility to be able to create a program around their unique circumstances.”

“Technology and the new work environment have certainly leveled the playing field immensely within the mobility space. People are still our greatest asset and Odyssey really lives and breathes this motto. They have been able to attract and retain many of the most talented and experienced relocation counselors in the industry. This combined with a leading-edge process has earned Odyssey an incredible reputation and track record for helping clients through the challenges experienced over the last couple of years. Despite one of the most difficult business environments the industry has ever seen, Odyssey experienced double digit growth. The way Odyssey has gone about building this company over the last 15 years is exactly the way I would build a relocation company. I am excited to be part of the Odyssey team and look forward to our continued growth and expansion.”
