The Recipe for Success: Role Summary
As the Translations Manager Europe, you are responsible for designing, optimizing, and governing the translation ecosystem that enables the business to communicate with clarity, consistency, and efficiency across all markets. You are part of the Commercial Marketing organization ensuring that all go-to-market activities are best in class, commercially relevant, and seamlessly implemented.

Through a combination of strategic oversight and hands‑on execution, you drive continuous improvement of translation workflows, implement quality assurance measures, and champion the integration of advanced language technologies—including AI and machine translation—into daily operations.
Your success is defined by your ability to collaborate seamlessly with internal stakeholders, country teams, and external partners, ensuring that all translated content meets the highest standards of accuracy, consistency, and brand integrity.
