Area Guides

Tailor made guides from Profile LocationsHelping motivate your employees and recruits to move and settle successfully in the new area

Available both in print and online, our detailed, high-quality area guides are known throughout the industry, and our customised websites and guides lead the field.

Our area guides support relocation, recruitment and retention. We recognise that moving can be a daunting experience, but our flexible menu of products ensures that the process is as stress-free as possible. With our help, you can extend consistent information to all your staff throughout every stage of the relocation process, motivating them and their families to move and settle successfully in the new area.

As the leading supplier of area information, we work with blue-chip companies, the public sector, the relocation management industry and inward investment organisations. Clients include Argos, AstraZeneca, the BBC, DSTL, NATS, Schlumberger, E.ON, Foster Wheeler and Abbey.

Whatever the size of your business or project, we’ll find a solution to suit your needs and budget.

Benefits for employer and employee

  • Promotes your location and overcomes preconceptions
  • Happily-settled individuals and families, increasing the likelihood of staff retention
  • The promotion of your company’s employer brand – tangibly endorsing your commitment, to your employees, to your recruits and to best practice

Product range

We offer a comprehensive and flexible range of location guides to support individual and group moves.

Guides are available in printed format and online, and can be customised and branded to meet your requirements.

Tailor-made – Bespoke guides just for you

For clients who really want to make their mark, our tailor-made, individually-branded and customised location guides are the smart choice.

We’ll work with your team to ensure your location guide matches your corporate identity perfectly. We can create guides to cover any specific area – whether you’re based in a large city or in a remote business park – and these can be entirely customised in terms of content, radius covered, branding, format and design.

Products are of the highest quality, with our in-house editorial and design team providing a first-rate service at a far more cost-effective rate than you’d get from an advertising agency or design house.

If you want additional topics and subject areas covered in your guide, no problem, and we can leave out any sections you don’t need. Whether your target market is expatriates, young recruits or families, we’ll tailor the content – and our style – to suit you and your company.

We have produced a range of material in a variety of formats to support inward investment projects and regional development agencies across the UK.

A stunning cover, attractive colour pages and illustrated dividers can all be designed to match your corporate identity, reinforcing your organisation’s employer brand.
