Episode #116 - Why Mobility, Not HR Ops, Should Own Right to Work Checks | Cassie Ramos, Biogen
In this episode, Paul sits down with Cassie Ramos, Lead Global Mobility Partner at Biogen. They talk about why Mobility, not HR Ops, should own right to work checks.
Cassie started out as an immigration paralegal and spent about six years as an immigration attorney. At Biogen, she leads global immigration and right to work, a remit she put her hand up for.
Her argument is simple. Mobility already handles the hardest right to work cases, so it understands the standard better than anyone. Owning the process doesn't mean checking every passport. It means building the process, being the escalation point and training the people who do the checks. We discuss:
Why should Mobility own right to work when its population is a small slice of the company?
What did a new facility in Switzerland reveal about every other country?
How do you take on every new hire without checking every passport yourself?
How do you decide which countries to focus on first?
Why are the US, UK and Poland the hardest countries to get right?
Why is right to work a business continuity issue, not just a compliance one?
We hope you enjoy!

Episode #115 - They Want to Move. What Do You Still Have to Own? | Jaya Gangwani, Zalando
When an employee is keen to move, what does the company still have to own?
How do you flex a relocation package without setting a precedent you'll regret?
What happens in the EU when the first question is "do I really have to move?"
In bid-led businesses, why does Mobility need to sit close to the bid managers?
In this episode, Paul sits down with Jaya Gangwani, Global Mobility Leader at Zalando.
Based in Berlin, Jaya has nearly two decades of experience across Mobility and HR, including at Alstom, Bombardier and Infosys. She's also relocated six times herself, across four countries.
Jaya has run Mobility in very different businesses. At Infosys, that meant sending software engineers to client sites around the world. At Alstom and Bombardier, the next location was often decided through a bid, months before anyone moved.
In this conversation, Paul and Jaya get into what Mobility still owes employees who are eager to relocate. Jaya explains why immigration stays core, why the flex is where a package adapts to the person, and why every flex decision needs thinking through for the precedent it sets. She also shares a simple Workday field a previous employer used to see who was ready to move, and where.
Together, Paul and Jaya discuss cross-border commuting in the EU, getting Mobility into location decisions early, and supporting a generation for whom the move itself is the easy part.
We hope you enjoy!

#114 — Nati Silveira, Thoughtworks: 18 Countries. One Global Mobility Model: Thoughtworks’ Centralisation Story
• How do you centralise Global Mobility across 18 countries without forcing every market into the same way of working?
• Why should you design the organisation first, before designing roles around the people already there?
• How do you get local teams comfortable moving away from long-standing vendors and processes?
• What skills matter most when building a centralised Global Mobility function?
In this episode, Paul sits down with Nati Silveira, Head of Global Mobility at Thoughtworks.Nati is British-Brazilian, a proud mum, and has more than 18 years of experience in Global Mobility. At Thoughtworks, she has built a high-efficiency Global Mobility CoE supporting a 10,000+ person tech organisation, covering the full journey from talent supply strategy through to settling in and thriving.
When Nati stepped into the global role, Mobility was highly decentralised across 18 countries, with different teams, vendors, processes and local ways of working.Over the following six years, Thoughtworks moved towards one global Mobility model, with a central CoE working alongside Mobility Operations.
Together, Paul and Nati explore what that transformation actually took — from organisational design and vendor consolidation to stakeholder management, local resistance and the changing skills needed within a global Mobility team.
We hope you enjoy :)
