A Network Built on Expertise and Craft

BeTranslated works with a select group of native-speaking specialists. Here is what we look for, though we are not accepting applications at the moment.

A Partner That Works the Way You Do

Reliable Payment

Invoices are paid by bank transfer within 30 days of approval, so you are not left chasing payment.

A Forward-Thinking Agency

We invest in tools that make your work better: translation memory, termbases, and AI-assisted workflows where they add genuine value. We do not expect you to work the same way you did ten years ago.

Specialism, Quality, and a Finger on the Pulse

Translation is a fast-evolving industry. We look for translators who bring deep subject expertise and stay current with the tools and developments shaping the profession.

  • Native-language translation only (into your mother tongue)
  • 5+ years of professional experience in a defined subject area
  • Degree or equivalent professional qualification
  • Proficiency in at least one professional CAT tool (Trados, memoQ, Phrase, or equivalent)
  • Awareness of AI-assisted translation workflows and how they affect your work
  • EU or EEA residency preferred for GDPR projects (not mandatory)

How Selection Works

How We Select Translators in Three Steps

01

Profile Review

When recruitment is open, our project management team reviews each translator profile, language pair, and specialism personally.

02

Short Verification Call

A 20-minute call with our project management team to confirm your specialisms, discuss tools you use, and understand how you prefer to work.

03

Welcome to the Network

You receive a supplier agreement, access to our project portal, and are matched to your first relevant project.

Sorry, we are not currently hiring. Please do not contact us with work-related inquiries. We will not respond, as we are not hiring at this time.

Translator Network Questions

No. There is no exclusivity requirement. You can work with other agencies and direct clients while working with us. We assign projects based on your availability and specialism, and you decide whether to accept each one.

Payment is made within 30 days of invoice approval for each completed project. We use bank transfer. There are no minimum earnings thresholds before payment is released.

You do not need to use AI tools, but we value translators who understand how AI is affecting the profession. Translation is changing fast. We look for professionals who engage with these developments rather than ignore them, even if your workflow remains human-only.

Most of our projects use Trados Studio, memoQ, or Phrase (formerly Memsource). Proficiency in at least one of these is expected. We can sometimes provide access to client-specific platforms on a project basis.

Not at the moment. Recruitment is paused, and we do not respond to applications or work-related inquiries while it is.
