As a Product Localization Manager, you will lead the full compliance of our hardware products with regulations required for each country in the Pacific region (Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and Asia Pacific). You will also support speed to market improvements for product launches and seamless updates to current products. You will develop in-depth knowledge in select countries and products and become the go-to subject matter expert connecting compliance requirements to business impact. Finally, you will drive optimal business decisions regionally and globally with sound business recommendations detailing requirements, impacts, timelines, and risks.
The Pacific Region’s business is growing, with all teams scaling up to support this dynamic market. This role offers the opportunity to solve some of the most challenging issues due to the complexity of emerging markets and its dynamic business environment. PLM leads the cross-functional collaboration to identify solutions which ultimately include the proper localization and customization of the Bill of Materials (BOM) to ensure readiness for the market.

Collaborate with global teams on the implementation of Pacific regulatory markings & artworks.
Work with Regulatory Compliance, Legal, Environmental, Safety, Government Affairs, and Trade Compliance teams on resolving and mitigating issues relating to product regulatory requirements.
Develop & execute localization solutions that are feasible (simple vs complex), scalable, and cost-effective to ensure products meet 100% of the in-country regulations.
Identify and communicate risks and priorities to drive on-time and compliant delivery of products.
Minimum Qualifications
Driven professional who is comfortable working in a fast-paced & dynamic environment.
A leader who can quickly understand the intricacy of issues/requirements, develop the business case, and drive a plan to resolution.
Exceptional project management & analytical problem-solving skills.
Excellent time management, ability to be “hands-on” with great attention to detail and ability to handle incomplete / ambiguous information with agility and comfort.

Experienced in risk assessment and developing mitigation plans.
Exceptional communicator (both written/verbal).
Does not accept status quo and can drive business process improvements.
Key Qualifications
Minimum 8-10 years of professional experience in developing the required Skills & Competencies, including international professional experience (Pacific Region is a plus).
Experience and knowledge of multiple disciplines within supply chain operations (order to fulfilment, supply/demand planning, logistics, manufacturing, etc.) and product management (localization, certification, and new product launches) is a plus.
Education & Experience
BS/BA degree required; MBA or advanced degree a plus.
