Vendor Quality Specialist – Global Localization
We’re hiring a Vendor Quality Specialist to help lead localization quality at scale — across multiple vendors, languages, and high-visibility products.
This is a hands-on role embedded in a lean, high-performance quality team responsible for ensuring translation output isn’t just accurate, but culturally resonant and operationally sound. If you’ve operated in fast-paced, global environments and know what great vendor management looks like, this role is built for you.
The Offer
- Salary range of £46,000 – £51,000 pa
- Fully remote working in the UK
- Role will start on an initial 6-month contract
What You’ll Own
- Oversee end-to-end localization quality workflows across vendors and markets.
- Act as the escalation and coordination point between internal teams and vendor partners.
- Manage feedback loops, triage translation issues, and track resolution.
- Execute and report on LQA tasks — ensuring timely delivery, data accuracy, and root cause follow-ups.
- Support testing, onboarding, and alignment of new linguists and vendors.
- Maintain linguistic assets across multiple locales — style guides, terminology, and reference materials.
What You Bring
- 3+ years in localization project or quality management — ideally with vendor-side exposure.
- Strong command of CAT tools, TMS platforms, and localization processes.
- Clear, culturally sensitive communication skills across time zones.
- Sharp judgment in managing ambiguity and prioritizing operational tasks.
- Degree in linguistics, translation, or related discipline.
