Phrase, the global leader in cloud-based localization software, has appointed Marion Kaehlke as its new Chief People Officer.  In this role, Kaehlke will be responsible for leading the company’s worldwide people organisation.

With over 25 years of industry experience focused on serving the global enterprise workplace, Kaehlke most recently worked with Ada Health, where she served as SVP People, Culture & Workplace. Previously, she held leadership roles at Philips, Beiersdorf, TUI, Tektronix/Danaher, YOC AG, TA Triumph Adler GmbH, and Monedo Holding GmbH.

“We are delighted to welcome Marion to the Phrase leadership team. Her arrival is well timed as we continue to invest in every Phrase employee to help drive our impressive growth across the globe,” said Georg Ell, CEO at Phrase. 

“It’s an incredible time to join the team at Phrase. I have a love of languages, and I deeply appreciate the power of localizing workplaces to foster diverse and inclusive internal cultures that drive performance within global organizations,” said Kaehlke. “The pandemic, digital transformation and the prevalence of mental health challenges have accelerated hybrid and remote work movements over the past few years. I’m extremely focused on the ability of technology, including AI, to help address the well-being, flexibility, autonomy, empowerment, speed, productivity, and, ultimately, the ease and personalisation of the employee experience.”
