About us
Philippa Pignat, Managing Director and Founder of ExpatMoves
After 22 moves in 25 years across several countries and after having sold prestigious London properties as well as real estate around the world, Philippa Pignat set up ExpatMoves.
Her French-British background and her love of international cultures always attracted her to multi lingual businesses. She has a passion for good food, fine wine and grand architecture. Her professional and energetic approach to property finding has won her tremendous loyalty from her international clients.
“My objective is to assist both large organisations as well as individuals in the same way: through a dedicated, intelligent and close relationship. We want our clients to save time and money with their mobility issues and property searches. My biggest reward is their smile of relief at the end of the day... they are finally moving to beautiful London and are happy to have gone through the smoothest of rides.”
