Higgsfield AI is the fastest-scaling generative AI company in history, hitting $500M in annual revenue run rate, 25M+ users worldwide, 6M+ generations per day, and powering 390 of Fortune 500 brands. We're building at the absolute frontier of AI-powered video creation and next-generation creative tools. Joining Higgsfield means becoming part of a high-impact team shaping the future of AI-native experiences, at a company that isn't just moving fast, but rewriting what fast looks like.
Everyone at Higgsfield is an A-player. We are hiring world-class talent from all over the world, and they all land in Almaty. We're looking for a Relocation Specialist who will own the entire journey of every international hire: from the moment they sign the offer to the moment they're fully settled and legally employed in Kazakhstan. You bring:
High agency and extreme ownership — you drive each case end-to-end, nobody chases you.
Deep respect for deadlines: visas, permits, and registrations have hard dates, and you never miss them.
Empathy and a service mindset — for a new hire, you are the face of the company in the most stressful weeks of their move.
Comfort with ambiguity, changing regulations, and a high-intensity, fast-scaling environment.
Discretion when handling passports, personal data, and confidential documents.
Own end-to-end relocation of international employees moving to Kazakhstan: from offer acceptance to full onboarding in Almaty.
Manage the full immigration process for inbound hires: visas, work permits, migration registration, and all required filings with Kazakhstani authorities.
Prepare, collect, and verify all documents required for legal employment of foreign nationals under the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, including translations, notarization, and apostille/legalization where needed.
Coordinate with external providers — migration agencies, legal counsel, translators, and relocation vendors — and hold them to deadlines and quality.
Track permit and registration deadlines, renewals, and status changes for all foreign employees, and keep a single up-to-date source of truth.
Run the practical side of the move: pre-arrival guidance, travel coordination, temporary housing, airport pickup, local registration, bank account and mobile setup, and first-weeks support in Almaty.
Be the single point of contact for relocating employees and their questions — before, during, and after the move.
Partner with Recruiting, HR, Ops, and hiring managers so start dates, contracts, and immigration timelines stay in sync.
Monitor changes in Kazakhstan's migration and labor legislation affecting foreign employees and adapt our processes proactively.
Build scalable, well-documented relocation playbooks as the volume of international hires grows.
Hands-on experience managing immigration and relocation of foreign nationals into Kazakhstan: visas, work permits, and migration registration.
Practical knowledge of Kazakhstan's migration legislation and the requirements for employing foreign citizens.
Experience working directly with government authorities and external migration/legal providers.
Proven ability to manage multiple parallel cases with hard deadlines and zero missed dates.
Strong document management skills and high attention to detail.
Excellent written and spoken English (you'll work daily with international hires) plus fluent Russian; Kazakh is a strong advantage.
Experience in a fast-scaling startup or international company relocating employees to Kazakhstan at volume.
Established relationships with migration agencies and service providers in Almaty.
Experience organizing the "soft landing" side of relocation: housing search, settling-in support, spouse/family questions.
Background in HR operations or global mobility.
Full-time, on-site role in our Almaty office.
Competitive salary in USD.
Opportunity to grow alongside one of the fastest-scaling AI companies globally.
High ownership, fast learning, and meaningful impact from day one.
