This guide is essential if…

Your international career path feels “atypical”, hard to explain, or misunderstood by recruiters.

Hello, I’m Marie.

Certified HR Consultant specializing in Global Mobility. I help internationally mobile professionals turn complex global careers into clear, strategic trajectories.

With 15+ years of experience across industry, tech, and services, I support both organizations and individuals in making expatriation a true career and performance accelerator, not a professional risk.

Certified SPHRi and GPHR, I work as a fractional Head of Global Mobility through Forwards International HR.

My approach goes beyond administration, combining business alignment, regulatory rigor, and a deep understanding of international transitions, bridging how global careers are lived and how they are valued by employers.

Professionals I’ve supported in navigating international careers

Going beyond the standard approach

I hold two U.S.-based certifications in international HR and global mobility: SPHRi and GPHR.

These certifications matter because they reflect a strongly business-driven and international perspective, far beyond a local or purely administrative view of mobility. They are designed around global employers’ expectations, complex regulatory environments, and real-world decision-making.

Holding both SPHRi and GPHR is rare in the freelance HR market — and reflects a strong business-driven and global approach.

They are renewed every three years, ensuring my expertise remains current in a fast-evolving global mobility and international HR landscape.
