business globetrotter

or maybe business jetsetter?

There are many new terms for this kind of work...I heard techno-nomad, which describes someone who works from all around the world without an actual office, hence not suitable here...

This is Bertelsmann, right? (Guetersloh, New York)
Peer comment(s):

disagree wrtransco : your suggestions would imply to me more than 2 places. Agree with Bertelsmann - NY office is fantastic with original Baselitz paintings.
