Eaton announced on January 26, 2026, its intention to separate its Mobility Group (including Vehicle and eMobility segments) into an independent, publicly traded company. We expect to complete the separation by the end of the first quarter of 2027. As an independent company, the Mobility business will be more focused and agile, creating meaningful opportunities for employees to grow, innovate, and help shape the future of mobility. The separation reflects strong confidence in the Mobility team and positions the new company as an employer of choice in the automotive and commercial vehicle industries.
The compensation and benefits initially offered for this position are based on Eaton’s plans, programs, and practices. If you receive and accept this position and remain actively employed by the Mobility Group at the time the separation is completed, the new company will provide employees with further details regarding compensation and benefits at that time, fully complying with applicable laws.
