Junior Project Manager
Starting Salary
£16,000 per annum
We are currently looking to hire a Junior Project Manager to work in our Southwark Street London SE1 offices.
Reporting directly to our Head of Projects, responsibilities will include:
• Liaising with clients and organising translation of diverse material in various languages
• Providing estimates for translation and interpreting assignments
• Co-ordinating the translation and interpreting projects and assignment of translators and interpreters in various languages
• Telephoning new prospects and existing clients
• Occasional proof-reading of English marketing materials and other communications
Requirements:
• The ideal candidate will speak English as their mother tongue but also fluent in at least one other language and have a degree in translation or a subject with a significant translation component
• A strong work ethic, ability to work unsupervised under considerable pressure and a willingness to go the extra mile to meet deadlines are essential. Equally important are good communication and negotiation skills
• Experience of translation co-ordination or similar demonstration of organisational abilities would be a definite advantage but by no means essential as full training will be given
Candidates should also exhibit the following:
• Professional demeanour
• Be goal orientated and tenacious
• Self-motivated and pro-active
• Capable of improvising and thinking on their feet
• Numerate & IT literate
• Have the flexibility to work overtime as required
A can-do attitude, determination to succeed and a willingness to get the job done whatever it takes are far more important than experience.
