Auren expands global mobility practice area with Aida Aparicio
Auren has reinforced its global mobility practice area with the hire of Aida Aparicio, an attorney with over 20 years of experience in international mobility and corporate immigration, as manager of the immigration department within the global mobility practice.
The global mobility practice offers integrated solutions spanning short- and long-term assignments, cross-border employment, business travellers, project-based mobility, and remote or hybrid working models across multiple jurisdictions. The service is built around the coordination of two internal divisions: the legal division, which covers corporate immigration, employment law, tax, and transfer pricing; and the people consulting division, which contributes expertise in compensation and benefits policies, incentive plans, and cross-border remote working arrangements.
Carlos Barreda, partner and head of global mobility, noted that “the value of the service lies not only in technical coverage but in the coordination of multidisciplinary teams that support both the company and the employee, mitigating risks and providing operational and legal clarity across any jurisdiction”. He also highlighted the firm’s international network as a key asset for clients operating in multiple countries.
Mario Rodríguez Lancho, partner at Auren Personas, emphasised that “international mobility goes beyond legal or tax compliance, encompassing the employee experience and the company’s broader talent strategy”. Alberto Gilarranz, partner in the employment practice at Auren Legal, stressed “t”he importance of a sound employment law approach to ensure legal certainty and regulatory compliance in each country, with a focus on anticipating risks for both employer and employee”.
Mario Alonso, president of Auren, described “the reinforcement as completing the firm’s global mobility offering by combining legal, tax, employment, and people advisory services to support companies and employees at every stage of their international projects”.
