KDE: move window to top left shortcut key (not tiling/no resize)

I've just come from cinnamon and I used to use ` key to move the current window to the top left of the screen, I can't find the option in settings apart from tiling which shrinks the window to a quarter of the screen as well which isn't what I'm looking for.

In Kubuntu 16.04 with kubuntu backports ppa enabled to have Plasma 5.8.8, it is possible in two steps.

For example, in System Settings > Global Keyboard Shortcuts > KWin I can use Ctrl+Super+Up (Pack Window Up) to move the window to the top and then Ctrl+Super+Left (Pack Window to the Left) to move the same window to the left. No resizing occurs.

You can, of course, use some other keyboard shortcuts, but I'm not sure you can use just a single key as you can in Cinnamon.
