As we grow country coverage, service capacity, and our partner network, you'll be the senior leader who makes that expansion happen. You'll also collaborate with our global immigration team on multi-country travel needs tied to market entry and acquisitions.

Additional language proficiency
You want to build and own a global consular practice, not just maintain one. You thrive managing high-volume, deadline-driven work across multiple jurisdictions and time zones. You're energized by combining deep visa expertise with operational and team-building responsibilities.
You prefer a narrowly scoped role without cross-functional or advisory demands. High-volume, time-sensitive caseloads feel draining rather than motivating. You're not ready to hire, develop, and hold a team accountable to clear standards.
