Manage the review, input, and deployment of localized marketing content-ensuring alignment with brand tone and cultural context across international markets.
Lead communication with editorial staff, business partners, language leads, QA teams, project managers, and external vendors.
Implement best practices for globalization, internationalization, and localization across various workflows and documentation.
Identify and flag cultural or linguistic risks, ensuring content remains sensitive and appropriate across all regions.
Troubleshoot and track linguistic bugs across systems; follow issues through to resolution.
Coordinate the translation, QA, and final delivery of marketing and UI localization content.
Work in agile project management environments, managing tasks and timelines using collaboration tools.
Anticipate tool training needs and guide vendor teams through evolving workflows and responsibilities.
Support internal documentation, testing needs, and reference material creation.
Ensure proper version control and accuracy of records across internal and vendor systems.
Collaborate across time zones and handle aggressive delivery schedules while maintaining exceptional quality.

What You Bring

5+ years of localization project management experience, preferably within a fast-paced, global tech or content-driven organization.
Exceptional attention to detail with the ability to manage multiple deadlines and projects simultaneously.
Strong understanding of cultural nuance and linguistic quality across global markets.
Solid grasp of the software development lifecycle and experience working within agile environments.
Experience with terminology and style guide creation, translation memory management, and localization QA processes.
Fluency in English required; native-level proficiency in an additional language highly preferred.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence and collaborate cross-functionally.
Hands-on experience managing localized content within CMS, vendor platforms, and project tracking systems.
A proactive, problem-solving mindset and ability to navigate ambiguity with confidence.

If you’re a skilled localization professional who thrives in global environments and enjoys owning the details that bring high-quality content to life across languages and cultures-we’d love to hear from you.
