Notion The Global Mobility Manager owns immigration, relocation, and global expansion programs for Notion employees worldwide. This role shapes policies, manages cases, and partners cross-functionally to streamline global moves.
Responsibilities
Imagine being the person who makes a move across the world feel easy. A candidate in Sydney gets a visa on a timeline they can plan around. A teammate relocating to Tokyo has a clear playbook, a human to talk to, and nothing to chase. A leader opening a brand-new market has a partner who can map the laws, entities, and employment models.
That's the job. At Notion, we build tools that change how people work together, no matter where they are. As our Global Mobility Manager, you'll build the bridges that make that true for our own team: immigration, relocation, and global expansion, all in one program that you shape, own, and scale.
This is a rare chance to take a working foundation, with playbooks, policies, and vendors already in place, and elevate it. You'll shape the policies and run the cases. You'll partner with People, Talent Acquisition, Legal, Finance, Accounting, and Tax, with dotted-line support from our shared services model in People Operations, so you're building alongside a team, not on an island. And you'll use AI and automation to turn a historically manual, paper-heavy function into something elegant. If you love fast-moving environments and turning solid foundations into great systems, you'll feel at home here.
This role is based in San Francisco or New York. We work from our offices on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (our Anchor Days) because we do our best thinking and building together in person. We’re looking for someone who’s excited to work alongside the team during those days.
What You'll Achieve:
Own mobility, end to end
Own immigration and relocation across hiring, transfers, rotations, and assignments, backed by clear policies and playbooks
Shorten time-to-visa and time-to-move through streamlined intake, approvals, SLAs, and vendor management
Guide candidates, employees, and managers with empathetic, concise communication and self-serve resources
Power global expansion
Support our expansion into new markets by:
Researching and ensuring compliance with local employment laws and regulations

Bonus: you've supported a company through its first international expansions or entities
