This includes performing in-depth linguistic quality assurance (LQA) to identify and rectify any errors in grammar, syntax, style, and terminology. You will ensure that all translated materials not only accurately convey the original message but also resonate with the target Norwegian audience in terms of cultural nuances and idiomatic expressions.

This requires a deep understanding of both the source and target languages, as well as the ability to translate a variety of content types, from marketing materials and technical documentation to website copy and user interfaces, all while adhering to project-specific guidelines and glossaries.

You will be responsible for assigning tasks, providing clear instructions, monitoring progress, and offering constructive feedback to ensure that all translators are working effectively and meeting project requirements.

This involves setting clear expectations, conducting regular quality assessments, and implementing corrective actions when necessary to maintain project integrity and client satisfaction.
  • • You will be a guardian of deadlines and quality levels. Proactively managing project timelines, identifying potential bottlenecks, and implementing solutions to ensure timely delivery without compromising on the linguistic quality will be paramount.
  • • Furthermore, you will be responsible for ensuring that the established Language Process is meticulously followed by the entire project team. This includes familiarizing yourself with and enforcing Welocalize's best practices, style guides, and quality metrics, thereby contributing to a consistent and high-quality output across all projects.
  • • This role offers the opportunity to work with a dynamic and innovative company that is at the cutting edge of language services. You will be part of a global network, contributing to Welocalize's mission of accelerating global business journeys for our clients.
  • • You will leverage your linguistic prowess to enhance the global reach of leading brands, ensuring their message is communicated effectively and authentically to the Norwegian market. Your work will directly impact client success by facilitating seamless communication and engagement with their target audiences.
  • • The position requires a proactive and detail-oriented individual who can manage multiple tasks simultaneously and thrive in a fast-paced environment. You will be expected to collaborate effectively with project managers, other linguists, and stakeholders to achieve project goals.
  • • Your commitment to excellence and your passion for language will be key drivers in this role. You will have the opportunity to continuously learn and develop your skills within the localization industry, contributing to a company that values innovation and human intelligence in its approach to language services.
  • • This role is ideal for someone who is passionate about the Norwegian language and culture, possesses strong analytical and problem-solving skills, and is dedicated to delivering high-quality linguistic solutions. You will be a vital link in the content transformation process, ensuring that our clients' messages are not only translated but truly localized for maximum impact.
