Language Producer, Global English - Content Localization

At Netflix, our mission is to entertain the world. Together, we are writing the next episode - pushing the boundaries of storytelling, global fandom and making the unimaginable a reality. We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next.

Language Producers are the bridge between Netflix’s global content ambitions and the on-the-ground, in-market reality. They sit close to our members: in-region, speaking the language, understanding the culture, and translating data into meaningful, market-specific decisions. The Language Producer for Global English Content Localization is accountable for how members experience English-language localized audio, timed text, and marketing assets, ensuring Netflix customers across the globe get the highest-quality, most culturally resonant English localization — what a great time to join Netflix!

The Language Producer is a Content Localization expert accountable for language and partner health across English-language assets — the main liaison between Netflix and local dubbing, timed-text, and marketing localization vendors, and the execution arm of our partner strategy. This role is the first line of contact for local partners, focused on quality at scale rather than exhaustive title-by-title supervision. Success is measured by the health of the language and partner ecosystem, the role stewards, not by how many titles it personally touches.

This is a 60/40 role: roughly 60% of the time is spent strengthening the local partner ecosystem — vendor relationships, talent pipelines, training, and feedback loops — and 40% is spent on direct, tiered engagement with a curated slate of high-priority titles and assets. Partners are the first line of defense on execution; the Language Producer trains, aligns, and trusts them to meet Netflix’s quality bar, and steps in directly where judgment moves the needle most (in-market popularity, language expansion, new formats, or systemic quality signals). This is a demanding, fast-moving position that requires someone who can hold a strategic, ecosystem-level view while getting as tactical as necessary to deliver content, working across all components of English localization — dubbing, timed text, and marketing — alongside in-territory and cross-functional teams.

PARTNER ECOSYSTEM MANAGEMENT (~60%)

* Own the local relationship with English dubbing studios, timed-text and DL/PLDL vendors, and talent partners — run recurring tactical syncs and quarterly strategic reviews grounded in performance data, escalating global strategy, vetting, and contract matters to Global Resource Management (GRM).

* Train, align, and support partners so they can consistently meet Netflix’s quality bar without relying on constant internal review; partners own day-to-day execution, and self-QC and local expertise are the default.

* Build and grow talent pipelines and databases for English-language dubbing and audio description; identify casting gaps (mature voices, diverse casting, new AD narrators, niche genres) and design or sponsor initiatives with GRM to close them, monitoring progress against milestones.

* Collaborate with partners on dubbing talent casting and mix reviews for select titles, while enforcing adherence to creative guidelines across all dubbed titles; look for opportunities to improve efficiency and innovation in budget, scheduling, and vendor mix.

* Closely monitor union/guild activity, market rates, and the competitive landscape that could influence pricing, capacity, or general market behavior.

* Act as a local integrator of partner and quality data and escalate critical local issues for visibility, even when the ultimate resolution sits with Legal or Public Policy.

TITLE-LEVEL ENGAGEMENT ACROSS WORKFLOWS (~40%, TIERED)

* Apply a tiered support model
