We’re looking for a senior Localisation Lead to own and evolve our localisation efforts across product, marketing, and especially video content as we scale into new markets.

This is a high-impact, hybrid role—ideal for someone passionate about wellness and motivated by the opportunity to create content that feels local and culturally relevant.

You’ll lead a growing localisation function, overseeing everything from app UI and onboarding flows to video-based workout programmes. You’ll partner with teams across product, growth, and content to embed localisation into our workflows, championing an approach that enhances both user experience and business outcomes.

• Own and lead the localisation strategy and execution across the full content spectrum — including product UI, marketing, and video-based content (e.g., workout videos, audio meditations/walks)

• Build and refine scalable localisation workflows — including tools, QA processes, content prep, and post-production performance

• Guide localisation for video content, including subtitling, dubbing/voiceover, cultural adaptation of scripts, and in-video graphics/text using AI

• Collaborate closely with producers, editors, and motion designers to ensure localisation is considered early in video planning and production

• Manage a small but growing team of localisers, freelancers, or vendors — mentoring them, reviewing work, and ensuring alignment on tone, brand, and execution

• Select and manage localisation platforms and oversee vendor relationships across translation, voiceover, and post-production

• Develop and maintain core assets such as tone of voice guides, glossaries, style guides, and localisation toolkits

• Use data to measure localisation quality and performance — demonstrating impact on user engagement, retention, and satisfaction across markets

• Act as an internal advocate for localisation — educating teams on best practices and encouraging early integration in product and content workflows

• 7+ years of localisation or internationalisation experience, ideally within a consumer-facing app, media company, or content-heavy digital product

• Deep experience localising video content at scale

• Strong leadership skills with experience guiding small teams and collaborating across disciplines (product, design, video, growth)

• Familiarity with localisation platforms and workflows (e.g., Lokalise, Phrase, Smartling) and video localisation tools or partners

• A user-centric mindset with a sharp editorial eye — you understand the importance of nuance, tone, and cultural sensitivity

• Data-literate: comfortable setting KPIs, interpreting metrics, and using insights to improve content effectiveness

• Excellent communication and project management skills: highly organised, clear, and collaborative

• Fluency in English required; fluency in one or more additional languages is a strong plus
