Global Mobility Lead

WHAT YOU’LL OWN GLOBAL MOBILITY - Own the mobility policy suite end to end: relocation, permanent transfers, short-term and long-term international assignments, remote/cross-border work arrangements, and business travel thresholds. - Run individual mobility cases from scoping to landing: package design, cost estimates, immigration sequencing, tax and social-security implications, payroll setup, relocation logistics, and post-arrival support. - Manage employment-based immigration casework in partnership with outside counsel: H-1B (including cap-subject and change-of-employer/AC21 timing), L-1, TN, E-3, O-1, F-1 OPT/CPT, and employer-sponsored permanent residence.

Own the internal timeline, the start-date reality check, and the manager/candidate communication. - Own daily immigration intake and case execution, including employer questionnaires, supporting documents, employment verification letters, signatures, counsel follow ups, and case closure. - Own right-to-work compliance across jurisdictions: I-9 and E-Verify in the US, Home Office share-code checks in the UK, and equivalent checks in our EU and other markets. - Decide and document the entity/employment model for each new market (direct entity, EOR, or non-resident payroll registration) with Finance and Legal. - Own our mobility vendor stack (immigration counsel, relocation, tax, EOR/global payroll): scope, SLAs, cost, and performance. - Model and track mobility cost, including sponsorship and premium-processing fees, so leadership can make go/no-go calls with real numbers, and obtain and document required approvals before committing sponsorship or spend DATA AND SYSTEMS - Build the tracking layer: mobility case pipeline, immigration deadlines and expirations, compensation comparisons, etc. - Stand up mobility dashboards: case volume, cycle time, cost per move, band penetration, offer-to-band variance, and equity-gap trend. - Write the employee-facing documentation so moves and pay decisions are predictable and explainable, not one-off negotiations.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR Required - 6+ years of experience in global mobility, with real ownership of cross-border moves and immigration casework, not just vendor hand-offs. - Working fluency in US employment-based immigration and at least one other major jurisdiction’s work-authorization regime (UK, EU, or Canada). - Strong analytical skills: comfortable in spreadsheets and HRIS reporting, able to build a defensible model and explain the assumptions behind it. - Judgment about risk.

You know when to escalate to Legal, when to flag classification or permanent-establishment exposure, and how to say no clearly. - Excellent written communication: you’ll draft policies, verification letters, offer rationales, and executive-facing recommendations. - Comfort with ambiguity, high volume, and shifting priorities.
