We deliver regulator-ready translation, linguistic validation, and localization solutions that support clinical trials, pharmacovigilance, regulatory affairs, labeling, and global commercialization. We are expanding our non-Linguistic Quality Control (QC) team to support some of the world's leading pharmaceutical and CRO clients. We're looking for detail-obsessed QC specialists who take real pride in catching what others miss. If you love the precision of quality control and want your work to matter in an industry where accuracy genuinely impacts patient safety, this is your opportunity to join a high-visibility program with steady, daily volume and long-term growth potential.

  • Use CAT tools (XTM preferred) and run QC checks to ensure accuracy and consistency.
  • Validate formatting, numbers, dates, units, terminology, and adherence to instructions.
  • Support processing of non-editable/handwritten sources and perform formatting QC after conversion.
  • Self-assign work according to availability via Open Offers and meet urgent turnaround times (typically 12-24 hours).
  • Handle high volume split across multiple small files; document and report discrepancies.
  • Collaborate with project managers and escalate risks promptly.

Requirements

  • Mandatory experience with CAT tools: XTM, Trados, MemoQ, Phrase, or others.
  • Experience with QA checks: Xbench, Verifika, or CAT-integrated QA.
  • Experience with Track Changes function in Word.
  • Minimum 6 months as a Language QA specialist in localization.
  • Advanced English level, minimum C1.
  • Availability of 4-5 hours per day; willingness to work weekends and bank holidays.
  • Able to meet urgent turnaround times (12-24 hours) and manage many small files.
  • Willing to complete the QC test and follow staged onboarding.
  • Prior experience with a similar QC role at a language service provider (LSP) is a strong plus.

Nice to have

  • Flexibility and willingness to work occasional weekends and bank holidays.
