Project Manager (Argentina; Remote US)

Job description:

As a Project Manager at DWL you will:

• Handle key accounts as part of the project management team.
• Manage projects in the medical / pharmaceutical field, including for submission to the European Medicines Agency (involving up to 24 languages).
• Be responsible for quotations, order handling and quality control of the translations.
• Operate within DWL’s quality management system and ISO 9001 certification.
• Set up and process compatible translation projects in DWL TMS and memoQ.
• Be responsible for the final processing of the translations to ensure that they respect the standard requested by the client.
• When required, work paid overtime (evenings, occasional weekends).

Profile:

• We are seeking a committed and dynamic person with excellent communication skills and strong knowledge of both spoken and written English and, ideally, experience in project management.
• Languages: knowledge of at least 2 European languages other than English is essential, and some understanding of the nature of scientific publications and documents, particularly regulatory/pharmaceutical/medical documentation, is a bonus.
• Regulatory: familiarity with EMA templates and standard terminology for this type of documentation would be ideal but is not essential.
• Accuracy: accurate and thorough quality control is essential to ensure that all the material delivered to clients complies with DWL quality standards.
• IT: computer literacy and strong MS-Word processing skills are essential as the project management occasionally requires the preparation/finalisation of layout/format for the translated documents. Must have working knowledge of a CAT tool (preferably memoQ)
• Desirable: Working knowledge of a TMS.

Our ideal candidate is a flexible, positive thinker. You enjoy working in a small, busy team and are always striving to find creative solutions to customer and translator problems.
