- 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.
