• Maintain consistency of brand messaging and quality across languages, regions, and channels.
• Manage content workflows across internal and external translation resources.
• Position the brand as a trusted authority through educational and market-focused content (e.g., trading guides, tutorials, market outlooks).
• Partner with internal analysts, educators, or influencers to produce expert-level insights.
• Identify opportunities for content-led webinars, live sessions, and community education initiatives.
• Liaise with legal and compliance teams to ensure content adheres to regulatory standards (FCA, ASIC, CySEC, etc.).
• Maintain version control, audit trails, and approval workflows.
• Stay updated on financial promotion regulations in key markets.
