Location may be flexible when

State whether the work setup is on site, remote or hybrid.
TEAMS
Ways to structure cross-border specialist support
The right structure depends on the countries, disciplines and level of coordination involved.

Work with different talents where expertise, language, location or responsibilities vary between countries.
Agree each talent’s scope and deliverables separately.
Consultants working together
Cross-border technical specialists can work together where a larger job needs several disciplines or local workstreams.
