Translation and Localization

Alpha CRC Ltd.

201-500

Germany

 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.

we’d love to hear from you.
