Executive Management Group
Roger Thrun, Founder and President, began his relocation career
at Merrill Lynch Relocation and eventually moved to Homequity in the mid 1980s.
Roger earned various promotions during his tenure at these companies and focused
on strategy development, business model transformation and operational efficiencies.
Having witnessed first hand the operations at these large relocation management
companies, Roger founded WHR Group because he believed there was a better way to
manage relocation services. Rather then offering a "one-size-fits-all" program,
he created a nimble, innovative, and responsive relocation firm supplying flexible
services to meet the specific needs of companies while reducing overall relocation
expenses.
Roger is a graduate of Marquette University, a licensed Real Estate Broker, a Certified Relocation Professional (CRP) and a member of the Wisconsin Young Presidents Organization (YPO). He has been active in the relocation industry for over 20 years.
