This role is deeply involved in the production and publishing lifecycle of localized content. The successful candidate will manage multiple localization projects and coordinate closely with internal stakeholders, including Marketing and PR, to ensure high-quality releases tailored for Asian markets.

Responsibilities

• Manage localization projects from planning through to release, ensuring quality, timeliness, and budget alignment.

• Liaise with internal teams (IPL, Development, QA) to understand project needs and localization requirements.
