** Project Manager (m/f/d) in a permanent position **
You enjoy working in a team, are able to work under pressure and keep an overview even in stressful situations. You are as good with numbers as you are with people.

You work carefully and are able to realise even complex client specifications. You meet deadlines and think ahead. You are no stranger to translation memory systems and termbases. You are not afraid of machine translation, so you are also confident in post-editing.
** Revisors (m/f/d) as freelancers **
Accuracy is in your blood.You have that little bit of linguistic flair that turns a good text into an exceptional one. Nevertheless, you are able to use tools to check and improve texts. You will support our translation teams and help us to maintain our exceptionally high quality standards.
If you are interested in one of these tasks and would like to familiarise yourself with everyday working life in the context of a simulation game, then register for this project seminar in our "job portal" here in Jogustine at www.jogustine.uni-mainz.de.You should already have worked with translation memory systems and termbases.It is a plus if you already have some experience with specialised translations.
