**What you will be working on**:

- Translate, mainly from English to French, a wide variety of documents ranging in complexity in an accurate and timely manner, ensuring quality and clarity, proper style and reflection of the political/industry environment and other sensitivities.
- Documents could include: submissions, industry guidelines, consumer guides, reports and surveys, presentations, press releases, conference materials and website content
- Check French documents posted on the website ensuring functionality (e.g., that links work), and liaise with appropriate stakeholder to resolve issues.
- Coordinate the day-to-day workflow of the translation service, receiving, triaging and assigning requests from internal clients.
- Act as the day-to-day point of contact for external translation services, following up on requests and receiving invoices, checking for accuracy, and routing for approval and payment.
- Ensure accuracy of translation: conduct terminology research that may involve shared software, clarify meaning with original author or stakeholders, and revise translations prepared by other translators.
- Contribute to Translation Services databank.
- Provide appropriate background context for external translation services; review and occasionally revise documents translated by freelancers.

**What you will bring**:
Professional qualifications and Experience
