Director of Business Development - DataForce

TransPerfect
Los Angeles, CA

Do you want to work for the global leader in the language services and technology industry? Are you interested in helping international brands/organizations find and implement solutions that allow them to communicate, operate and sell their products and services efficiently and effectively? And are you the type of person who enjoys working in an innovative and vibrant workplace? Then TransPerfect is for you!

So you like what you hear but haven’t worked in ‘language’ before? That is not a problem, TransPerfect is far from “just a translation agency”. Our services portfolio covers everything from business support services such as interpretation, multicultural and digital marketing, SEO and website globalization to multimedia work, video, e-learning and training, and legal support services. All services and client partnerships are aided by best-in-breed software platforms, specialized in optimizing business processes.

That’s enough about us – what about you?
