    Description
    • Are you meticulous about good grammar and accurate spelling with German at mother-tongue level?
    • Do you have a precise understanding of German and a high level of English?
    • Do you enjoy working in a multinational environment?

    If you can answer yes to these questions, this entry-level position as a linguistic tester at a world-leading localization services provider could be the perfect opportunity. It's a chance to kick-start your career in a fast-moving professional environment and develop a wide range of in-demand skills.

    Working as part of a large international team, you'll be able to demonstrate cultural sensitivity while remaining focused on different projects simultaneously. You'll have excellent organizational skills as well as the ability to communicate clearly and precisely in English. This is a role in which you'll demonstrate strong client-facing skills and have the opportunity to develop professionally at a rapid rate.

    You'll have a keen eye for linguistic detail in German and a keen ability to spot errors, review translations and ensure consistent style for your clients' target audiences.

    Working with on-stage testing and our computer aided translation (CAT) tools, you'll be IT literate and have a proactive approach to problem-solving. While experience in translation technologies is not essential, you'll be keen to learn new software skills and apply them professionally.
