About Move Up

Move Up is a South African relocation group helping individuals, families and employers make informed decisions about moving to, living in and working in the United Kingdom. Founded in Cape Town in 2010 by Ryan Rennison, the group combines South African context with specialist support across visa, nationality, recruitment, travel and relocation journeys.

One group, specialist teams

Relocation questions often overlap, but they do not all require the same expertise. Move Up connects each enquiry with the team best suited to handle it:

  • UK Visas for visa routes, applications and related case support.
  • British Claims for British citizenship and passport matters.
  • UK Jobs for recruitment, employer sponsorship and career opportunities.
  • Move Up Travel Solutions for the practical parts of an international move.

How we work

  1. Start with your circumstances. We first establish what you are trying to achieve and which facts affect the route available to you.
  2. Direct you to the right specialist. Your enquiry is routed to the relevant Move Up team rather than treated as a one-size-fits-all request.
  3. Set out the scope clearly. Before paid work begins, you should understand the service, the next steps and what information or documents will be needed.
  4. Keep the process understandable. We use plain language and practical guidance so that you can make informed decisions throughout the journey.

What you can expect

Move Up was built for South Africans who want clarity before they commit to a major international decision. Our website explains common questions, costs, comparisons and processes, while our specialist teams deal with the facts of each individual case. Immigration and nationality rules can change, so eligibility and strategy are confirmed against your current circumstances rather than assumed from a general article.

Where a request crosses more than one area—such as a visa, a UK job and practical relocation support—the relevant teams can work from the same overall objective while keeping their specialist responsibilities clear.
