Remote flexibility

Undisclosed

The listing is advertised as remote but does not state which countries or regions candidates may work from.

Why this role is Undisclosed

We only label a role Work from anywhere, Region restricted or Work from home when the employer's own wording says so. We checked this advert under our current rules and found no country or region eligibility requirement in it. We don't guess, so it stays Undisclosed until the employer publishes enough location information. Here is exactly what the advert left out.

Countries you can work from: Not stated. The advert only gives "Remote", which names no country you must live in.
Whether the work is remote: Confirmed by the employer: "This position will report directly to the General Counsel and is remote."
Working hours: Not stated. No timezone overlap or set hours are mentioned, so assume nothing either way.

Worth a look all the same. Missing wording is usually a rushed job posting rather than a closed door, so ask where you can be based in your first message, before you write a tailored application.

Questions worth asking: Nomaders interpretation

The advert does not say where you can be based. Ask which countries they can legally employ or contract you from.
The advert does not say whether this is employment or a contractor arrangement. Ask, as it affects tax and benefits.
