Job role
The Global Mobility team (based in Allianz SE, the Group’s headquarter in Munich) is managing all international assignments globally from beginning to the end, consulting on all cross-border related topics and ensuring tax, social security and immigration compliance.
The Global Mobility Consultant (based in Allianz Services Bucharest Branch) is responsible for handling requests from Allianz employees located in different entities to perform cross-border remote work from outside their country of employment. To a certain degree, the assessments for cross-border remote work will be automated via a self-service tool for employees. However, a large amount of cases – both temporary and permanent – will require an individual case assessment based on the criteria as set out in the Allianz Global Guidance for Cross-Border Remote Work (i.e. such as permanent establishment risk, corporate income tax, personal income tax, social security etc.).
The Global Mobility Consultant is responsible for conducting these individual case assessments and providing a recommendation to the responsible HR managers in the Allianz entities. In addition, the Global Mobility Consultant ensures that the self-assessment tool gets updated based on the learnings from the individual case assessments as well as knowledge sharing on cross-border remote work among the different Allianz entities. Definition: Cross-Border remote work refers to employees, who work remotely outside the country of employment, in a temporary or permanent setup (excluding business travels or international assignments of employees).
