Localization Program Manager, CreatorGlobal

About the role

The Localization Program Manager is the operational backbone of CreatorGlobal’s end-to-end localized content production. This role owns the full project localization lifecycle from initial scoping and vendor engagement to production coordination, delivery, and quality sign-off. You’ll serve as the primary bridge between our internal production teams and the studio ecosystem, ensuring projects are scoped accurately, approached from a global lens, and executed on time without sacrificing quality. You’ll build and steward strategic vendor relationships while maintaining the operational rigor that allows CreatorGlobal to function globally.

This is a fully remote position; however, candidates must reside in or be aligned with the Eastern Time Zone. Periodic travel will be required.

What You'll Do

• Production Program Management - Own the end-to-end lifecycle of localized asset production across multiple simultaneous workstreams — keeping timelines tight, stakeholders informed, and blockers resolved.
• Post-Production Coordination - Act as the connective tissue between CreatorGlobal’s internal production teams and our localization partners, overseeing handoffs, revision cycles, and final deliverables to ensure every output meets required specifications.
• Project Scoping & Quotation Consolidation - Intake requests from production and brand partnerships teams, engage studios and partners to gather financial quotes, and communicate clear cost summaries to internal stakeholders to make informed decisions.
• Vendor & Relationship Management - Build and steward CreatorGlobal’s network of external localization vendors and studio partners — managing onboarding, developing long-term strategic relationships, and securing the terms and capacity we need to scale.
• Process & Collaboration - Work cross-functionally with production, strategy, and operational leadership to keep programs aligned with business priorities, while continuously improving the SOPs and workflows.

What We're Looking For

• Required:
• 4–6 years in program or project management, localization operations, or a closely related production management role
• Demonstrated experience of end-to-end production workflow ownership in a fast-paced and high-volume media/content environment
• Proven track record of external vendor relationship management, including scoping, quotation, negotiation, and performance management
• Strong cross-functional communication skills — comfortable working across production, strategy, and creative teams in a fully remote, asynchronous environment
• Experience using Monday.com (or similar project management tools) to manage timelines, workflows, and cross-functional coordination
• Experience building and maintaining operational systems and documentation (project management tools, SOPs, rate cards, etc.)

• Nice to Have:
• Background in media localization, international content production, or post-production workflows (especially for YouTube, Amazon, or other streaming platforms)
• Familiarity with localization asset types including dubbing, subtitling, and adapted creative assets — even if not hands-on
• Experience managing and coordinating with post-production agencies or distributed freelance teams
• Proficiency in DaVinci Resolve and/or Adobe Premiere Pro for post-production workflows

• Competitive Salary
• Generous Medical (Blue Cross Blue Shield), Dental, Vision and company-paid Life Insurance
• Company contributions to employee Health Savings Accounts (HSA)
• 401k Plan with Safe Harbor company-matching
• Flexible vacation policy and paid company holidays
• Company-provided technology package
• Relocation assistance where applicable, including travel and company-provided housing for the first 90 days
