 If you are going to spend six months or more in one location this will be considered as a relocation and your compensation will be evaluated based on the new geo area.
 - If your relocation is to a different geo area, then to stay aligned with our [compensation principles](/handbook/people-group/global-compensation/#compensation-principles) and per the [standard contract agreements](/handbook/contracts/), you should obtain written agreement first from your manager (email will do) and then from the [People Ops Analyst team](/handbook/people-group/#how-to-reach-the-right-member-of-people-operations). You must have approval 30 days prior to any official move. If you are considering a move it is best to discuss this with your manager as soon as possible, before you have actually moved, to understand the impact to compensation or your role at GitLab. In almost all situations the compensation may change. In some instances a move will not align to your proposed location, (e.g. a recruiter hired in EMEA to support EMEA would not be approved to move to the US). It is the company's discretion to offer you a contract in your new location or to not continue with your contract based on a relocation. For an idea about the impact please check with our Compensation & Benefits Manager, Brittany Rohde, for an accurate salary in the new [geographical area](/handbook/people-group/global-compensation/#geographical-areas).
-- If a team member is moving to a lower cost of living, the change only needs to be approved by their manager and the Compensation & Benefits Manager, Brittany Rohde. If the team member is moving to a higher cost of living, the Compensation & Benefits Manager will escalate to the Executive of the Group for approval.
+- To initiate a request for relocation the team member or manager can reach out to their assigned People Business Partner (PBP).  The PBP will work with the compensation team to review the request and any changes in compensation.  
+- If a team member is moving to a lower cost of living, the change only needs to be approved by their manager and the assigned People Business Partner. If the team member is moving to a higher cost of living they will need their People Business Partner and their group Executives approval.
+- Once approved the PBP will confirm the relocation with the compensation team.  
 - The People Ops Analyst team will check that any necessary changes to payroll and benefits administration are processed in time.
 - The People Ops Analyst team will generate a letter of adjustment confirming the changes.
 - This letter is drafted by the People Operations Analysts and signed by the Compensation & Benefits Manager and the signed document is filed in BambooHR.
-- If there are any questions or concerns, please reach out to the Chief People Officer.
