You will work on a varied range of allocated accounts spanning our full range of marketing localization services including: print and interactive media, audiovisual, digital marketing and creative and brand. With a deep understanding of your client's needs you'll come up with creative solutions that are unique to the customers' situation and consistently demonstrate Wordbank's value in the relationship. If you’re a super organised, collaborative problem-solver with a passion for marketing and localization, we’d love to hear from you.

You will be liaising directly with our existing clients in Japan (Tokyo) - in person and in video conferencing - and working with our Japan-based Project Managers.

In an environment of continuous learning and development, we motivate all Wordbankers to gain autonomy, mastery and purpose in their roles. People are at the heart of everything we do. We want everyone in the Wordbank family to feel respected and valued and we're proud to be an aspiring BCorp and Investors In People Gold accredited − proof we practise what we preach.

If this sounds like you, please apply with your CV and covering letter, the role is available immediately.
