And are you the type of person who enjoys working in an innovative and vibrant workplace? Then TransPerfect is for you!

So you like what you hear but haven’t worked in ‘language’ before? That is not a problem, TransPerfect is far from “just a translation agency”.

All services and client partnerships are aided by best-in-breed software platforms, specialized in optimizing business processes.

That’s enough about us – what about you?

We look for and appreciate anyone who is willing to roll up their sleeves and get stuck in! We offer a fast growth path and provide full training around our services, technology solutions and workflows. Therefore the key skills we are looking for are solid communication and relationship building abilities, keeping a cool head if situations get a bit stressful and really owning your role, taking responsibility for your clients and their business success.

If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you! We have 90 offices worldwide but this particular opportunity is based in our midtown Honolulu office. We offer career development and an attractive bonus plan and social events are organized frequently.
