About Foundry
At Foundry, formerly known as IDG Communications, Inc. and rebranded on February 17, 2022, we have played a key role in every major milestone, announcement, and development in modern technology since 1964.
Originally established as the publishing arm of the International Data Group (IDG), we distributed newspapers, magazines, and books globally, featuring prominent brands such as CIO, ChannelWorld, ComputerWorld, PCWorld, and many more.
Today, at Foundry we continue to lead the world by helping companies bring their visions to reality through a combination of media, marketing technologies and proprietary data. Our technology platforms are powered by data from our owned and operated ecosystem of global editorial brands, prestigious awards, and events, all engineered and integrated to drive marketing campaigns for technology companies. While we harness the power of algorithms, optimisation, and automation, what truly fuels our success are the meaningful connections and trusted relationships we cultivate.
What truly sets our hearts on fire is our unwavering belief in technology as a force for good. We are not just bystanders; we are the architects of positive change. With wisdom as our guide, we are spearheading progress in various crucial areas, such as championing diversity and inclusion, democratising tech accessibility, and championing women in leadership roles.
About the Team
Foundry has a large subscriber base of both technology and business influencers and decision makers. Technology companies and agencies alike utilise this reach to market their solutions and connect with these contacts on a global scale. The unique requirements of each client are transferred into campaigns which the Data Services Group is responsible for managing.

This role will ensure our translations reflect the accuracy and cultural standards expected locally. It is an opportunity to contribute to how Foundry grows and continues to stand out as a trusted provider of high-quality, locally relevant lead generation in Japan.
