This department is involved in the localization space, and operations span the full life cycle of translation deliver, from managing clients and vendors, delivering volumes, ensuring translation quality, and managing payments. This is a hybrid role that requires one to manage data queries and dashboards, maintain or implement automations and tooling for internal users, and run programs to improve productivity.

For all aspects though, this role works closely with their peers, senior managers, and stakeholders from other business functions to drive improved operational performance.

About the team
This team operates out of APAC and Europe, and potentially interfaces with stakeholders located in the U.S. Despite being based remotely, the team works on values its highly collaborative and inclusive working culture.
