At Audible, we believe stories have the power to transform lives. It's why we work with some of the world's leading creators to produce and share audio storytelling with our millions of global listeners. We are dreamers and inventors who come from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences to empower and inspire each other. Imagine your future with us.
ABOUT THIS ROLE
In this role, you will support Audible's international content department across three core pillars: strategic content planning, localisation program support, and cost planning and reporting. You will report into the International Planning and Translation Director and work across Audible's marketplaces in UK, Germany, France, Italy and Spain.
On the planning side, you will assemble insights from a variety of sources and departments to compose guidance for our content strategy, from release scheduling and tiering to campaign support and merchandising. You will transfer analytical insights into actionable guardrails for our content teams.
On the localisation side, you will support our Audible Originals localisation program end-to-end; from title selection and P&L preparation through to pipeline management and vendor coordination, ensuring timely, high-quality delivery across our European marketplaces.
On the operational side, you will own cost control and data integrity in Airtable, maintaining accurate records of expected, greenlit, and contractual costs, and developing QA protocols that enable reliable decision-making across the team.
Another focus of this role is to create portfolio reviews across the different marketplaces to constantly optimize our efforts and resource allocation.
ABOUT YOU
You have strong analytical skills paired with a pragmatic mindset and a genuine affinity for media and content consumption trends. You can apply quantitative thinking to the qualitative dimensions of creative products, whether that means evaluating a content portfolio, assessing localization priorities, building a P&L, or shaping release and merchandising strategies.
You are comfortable working across multiple marketplaces and cultures, and you thrive in creative, international and matrixed environments. You bring confidence in facilitating cross-functional meetings, aligning diverse stakeholders, from content managers to finance partners to production teams, and driving decisions in a fast-paced, collaborative setting.
You are operationally minded and detail-oriented, equally at home managing data in workflow tools and thinking strategically about programme-level decisions. You have a continuous improvement mindset; always looking for process gaps, reporting inefficiencies, or quality issues to resolve.
Your communication skills, written and verbal, allow you to break down complex matters into actionable guidance. You are motivated by improving business outcomes, delivering the best possible experience for our customers, and ensuring operational excellence across content and localization pipelines.
This position is open through a 24-month contract.
