THE CHALLENGE

When first arriving in the UK, finding accommodation took far longer than we had expected, and setting up a new business became a marathon task. However, our experience is by no means unique.

 

No matter where they have come from, people coming to the UK from around the world face a similar challenge.

THE TRANSFORMATION

After fighting through these early barriers, within just a few years, our founder rose to a senior position in the House of Commons (Westminster Parliament, UK).

 

He decided to launch The Hawkish Group in 2018 to help those planning on making a similar international move to or from the UK.

 

THE OPPORTUNITY

Too often, the lack of clarity in the way the system works in the UK can delay or withhold opportunities. This includes the complex systems of immigration, education, business, finance, and investment aspirations.

 

This lack of clarity spurred our founder to create a consultancy that would give back to the many and varies communities whose members decide to make a life here.
