About Vela Global Mobility
Vela Global Mobility is an international mobility advisory and relocation coordination firm based in Nairobi, working with organisations and individuals navigating cross-border transitions.
International transitions
Vela Global Mobility emerged from hands-on work with clients navigating cross-border moves — for employment, study, relocation, and longer-term international. Over time, it became clear that:, international transitions are rarely just logistical. They affect people’s work, families, education, and long-term plans — often all at once.
Vela was formed to operate as a central point of coordination & advisory support, helping clients understand options, risks, and requirements before moving forward.
How we work
We take time to understand context before offering guidance. That means listening carefully, asking the right questions, and helping clients think through their options in a structured but practical way.
Professional Standards
Our advisory approach is guided by internationally recognised standards in mobility and education counselling.
Our lead consultant is ICEF-trained, reflecting a commitment to ethical guidance, informed decision-making, and alignment with international institutions and best practices.
Navigating Change
Based in Nairobi, Kenya, we work closely with organisations and individuals navigating these moments of change. Some are relocating teams or expanding operations. Others are moving their families, pursuing education abroad, or planning longer-term international lives.
In every case, the decisions involved carry real weight. Our role is to help bring clarity to those decisions.
