About Be More Relocation:

At Be More Relocation, we believe that the core of any successful move isn’t the truck or the tools, it’s the professionals inside your home. Our nationwide network of skilled service providers delivers the care, precision, and reliability your move deserves. Whether relocating a family, a military household, or a corporate office, we make every move a reflection of excellence.

This position will be involved in helping Service Members and their families relocate during the PCS process through a Personally Procured Move. We recognize the difficulties that come with the existing military program and the troubles that arise when Service Members try to source their own moving company for a PPM. Our company has experience through the current program, the Global Household Goods Contract, and there is significant room for improvement for the moving services. Our goal is to build this initiative with the insight and experience that only comes from being in the Military Services and provide an excellent relocation experience for the Service Members and their families.

Why us?

Our company was created by individuals who have worked in the household goods industry for years, but not as movers; we were suppliers to the moving companies themselves. This provided us with the unique insight to learn the difficulties that moving companies encounter, their structure, areas where the process can be improved, all while also learning that the government does not have a full understanding of how to best create a program which delivers the best relocation experience to Service Members and their families. Over the last two and a half years, it has become clear that creating an internal program to service moves via a Personally Procured Move is the best way to consistently provide this high level of service.

It is our experience that when developing new initiatives, the best way to learn is through the customer's input. It would be an honor to not only help the military personnel who have served to protect our country by providing an opportunity to learn skills for post service life but also develop a program that is truly built with input from those same individuals.

We look forward to an opportunity to discuss this initiative more with you during the interview process.

• Direct mentorship from the Chief Commercial Officer
• Hands-on experience in sales strategy and military relocation markets

Performance Bonus and Commission (post internship)

• Throughout the process of building this program, our team will work with the Intern to develop performance metrics which will shape the bonus structure based on the success of the program and individual should both parties elect to move into full term employment once the internship has concluded.
