Juriscribe® is a legal and corporate translation company working with law firms, companies, and financial institutions on high-stakes bilingual and multilingual documentation.
We are looking for a remote Bilingual Project Coordinator based in Argentina to help manage legal and corporate translation projects from intake through delivery.
This is primarily a project coordination, client-service, and quality-control role, not a production translation role. However, the person must have enough Spanish-English translation competence to review work for quality, terminology, formatting, completeness, and obvious legal or linguistic issues, make limited edits when appropriate, and know when to escalate issues to a senior translator or reviser.
Responsibilities:
- Coordinate translation and revision projects from client request to final delivery.
- Review client instructions, files, deadlines, and project requirements.
- Prepare files for translators and revisers.
- Assign work to translators, revisers, and other vendors.
- Track deadlines and follow up proactively.
- Communicate professionally with clients and vendors in English and Spanish.
- Check completed work for completeness, consistency, formatting, terminology, and obvious quality issues.
- Perform limited edits or corrections where appropriate.
- Flag legal, linguistic, formatting, or deadline risks early.
- Maintain organized files, project records, and delivery packages.
- Help improve internal workflows, checklists, terminology resources, and project procedures.
Requirements:
- Excellent written English and Spanish (other languages a plus).
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
- Ability to manage deadlines, priorities, and multiple moving parts.
- Professional communication style with clients and vendors.
- Experience with memoQ, Trados, or other CAT tools.
- Experience with translation business management tools like Plunet.
- Experience coordinating translators, editors, or freelancers.
- Comfort working with Word, PDF, Excel, Outlook, and online project tools.
- Ability to review Spanish-English and English-Spanish translations for basic quality-control purposes.
- Good judgment about when to fix an issue directly and when to escalate it.
- Reliability, discretion, and comfort working with confidential legal and corporate documents.
- Prior experience in projects involving the translation of legal, corporate, and financial documentation.
Clarification:
- This is not principally a translator position.
- The successful candidate will usually coordinate projects rather than perform full translations.
- However, translation competence is important because the role includes quality control, issue spotting, terminology checks, and occasional limited editing.
Work Arrangement:
- Remote.
- Contract role.
- Part-time to start, with the possibility of expanding depending on fit and workload.
- Argentina-based candidates preferred.
