Would you like to work with us in-house at Atlas Translations? We’re a small but busy team working out of our offices in St Albans, Bath, Bedford, Edinburgh, Exeter, and Manchester, offering fun and rewarding careers at Atlas Translations.
Work From Home
We offer a work-from-home environment, and in July 2019, we introduced the four-day week to help staff maintain a healthier work/life balance. No, salaries were not reduced.
Because of that transition, our staff safely worked from home during the COVID-19 pandemic.
We now offer a “your choice” working environment—you can work from home or at our head office in St Albans!
Childcare vouchers, working from home one day a week, NEST pension, bottomless tea and coffee, paid holidays and bank holidays are standard. We do not require any overtime, and, as mentioned above, we believe in a good work/other life balance. There is a monthly bonus scheme based on office financial turnover. A second bonus is paid based on individual projects, AND a quarterly bonus for the highest-performing project manager.
Applying In-House
We have recruited two additional staff this fiscal year (2023-2024), so we don’t have any PM vacancies at the moment. Happily, staff tend to stay at Atlas for quite a while, so vacancies are rare. If you’re interested in getting your CV in front of us for future openings, please email the team at team@atlas-translations.co.uk.
Make it personal and creative, and make us notice you (in a good way). Don’t forget to attach your updated CV. We will securely keep your details on file and contact you if something comes up.
Cake!
Cake is so important that it gets its own heading. We love cake, and we’re not bashful about admitting it. Also, tea. Here at Atlas, cake will usually appear for a birthday or other “legitimate” excuse.
Out and About with Atlas!
If you want to learn about us and a career at Atlas Translations—this website, our blog, and our social media channels are great places to start.
We’re active members of our local business communities in the St. Albans, Devon, Manchester, Edinburgh, Bedford, and Bath areas. As communicators, we will talk to anyone about translation, localisation, and the language business as long as possible!
You might meet us at an exhibition, a career fair, a university careers evening, or the Language Show. Suppliers can sign up to attend our Open Days, which we hold twice a year.
This is a free event; anyone can attend, even if you have not worked with us yet.
Placements
We used to have an established and popular placement scheme, but since COVID, working practices have changed.
Currently, we’re still planning how to offer remote placements that would allow us to provide the same level of support and training as our in-house placements.
Keep an eye on our socials, as that’s where we’ll post about in-house recruitment or placement positions.
Freelance
If you want to work with us as a freelance supplier, please do not just send us a CV. You need to have an initial conversation with us and then apply online.
