Job Description

We are looking for a Thai Localisation Specialist to join our global localisation team.

Our localisation team is passionate about the Wise mission and wants to make sure that more countries and customers hear about it.

This is a challenging and exciting role in which you will be able to localise and adapt our contents and also have the ability to come up with innovative ways of reaching new customers.

The role can be based in our Singapore office. You will work closely with the Localisation Coordination team and other Localisation Specialists based in our offices around the world. 

You need to have a passion for words and experience in localisation. You should be comfortable working on finance, product and marketing contents.

  • Evaluate and report on vendor quality for a continuous improvement cycle 

  • Perform QA and liaise with marketers, product owners, engineers and other stakeholders to investigate, fix or overcome issues and challenges

  • Define and ensure a consistent tone of voice —everywhere from web pages to customer support emails

  • Identify and address growth opportunities with Thai audiences

  • Establish and maintain language glossary, guidelines and terminology for other language stakeholders and teams, and keep it accessible

Qualifications

A bit about you

  • Full professional proficiency in written and spoken Thai to localise, translate, and adapt financial, product, and marketing content for the Thai market, with deep familiarity with local cultural nuances, idioms, and market context.

  • Your linguistic skills in Thai allow you to effectively adapt your tone and style to suit product, marketing and support contents

  • You have excellent written and verbal communication skills in English

  • You are familiar with CAT, TMS and/or MT tools as well as best practices in terms of quality management processes and workflows

  • You have strong attention to detail and are committed to providing high-quality localisation

  • You have an analytical mind, and can express it constructively in order to reach what’s best for customers

  • You manage your time efficiently and are used to working in a fast-paced environment with concurring deadlines whilst maintaining high standards of quality

  • Your cultural sensitivity and awareness allow you to accurately convey cultural nuances in your work

  • You have at least a Bachelor's degree or equivalent

 

Some extra skills that would be awesome
