Senior Manager, Global Mobility

We are looking for a capable Global Mobility leader to oversee and advance Crunchyroll's global mobility programs across a rapidly scaling, international organization.

As a Sr. Manager, Global Mobility, you will be the primary owner of mobility execution and operational excellence across immigration and relocation. We ask that you have a balance of program ownership, technical expertise, and sound judgment, in navigating complex immigration matters, global mobility practices, and cross-border employment considerations.

You will partner closely with People Experience COEs, Legal, Payroll, Finance, Talent Acquisition, and external vendors including immigration counsel to ensure mobility programs are compliant, efficient, and aligned to business and hiring needs. You will also play a critical role in ensuring that mobility processes support hiring velocity, candidate experience, and global workforce strategy.

This is a hands-on leadership role operating at a high level of autonomy, responsible for managing complexity, driving consistency, and elevating how Crunchyroll approaches global mobility at scale.

Position based in the Los Angeles office.
