Job description

We are looking for a Translator to interpret written pieces from English to Spanish (Colombian), making sure to maintain their original meaning, format, and tone.

Translator responsibilities include reading and thoroughly understanding the context of a given material (copy), using specialized dictionaries and translation tools, and proofreading finished pieces of work. To be successful in this role, you should have a keen eye for detail and be fluent in English in addition to your native language.

• Native Colombian Spanish Speaker

• Availability of at least 5-10 hours a week

• Proven work experience as a Translator, Interpreter, or in a similar role is a must

• Excellent proofreading skills with the ability to identify grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors

• Good knowledge of content editing tools

• Familiarity with translation software

• Time-management skills

For the first 6 months, we are offering payment per hour. The reason we’re offering hourly compensation is that our copies are shorter and trickier compared to other texts. We count the time our translators spend researching and brainstorming too (as well as proofreading, of course). Then, we aim for a 10% increment in your first year working with us. We currently have a team of 25+ translators, and our translation team is constantly growing!
