The Team Lead – Linguistics is responsible for guiding a highly diverse linguistic team across multiple markets, ensuring smooth operations, quality, and collaboration. This role combines hands-on mentorship, workflow management, and process oversight to maintain accuracy, efficiency, and team growth. The Team Lead also drives communication across global teams, translating feedback and project needs into actionable priorities while fostering an inclusive and high-performing work environment.
