JOB DESCRIPTION

JOB DETAILS

To comply with Search’s procurement policies, this pre-qualification process will be renewed at a yearly basis to maintain a fair competition.

- Consultants must be able to sign an agreement;
- They must be duly registered for VAT and other taxes;
- Consultants are expected to have sound skills and knowledge in their area of expertise in order to deliver a high level performance.

Specific Requirements

Based on their background, selected consultants will be divided in 3 categories as following:

- Junior consultant: 2 to 4 years of experience
- Expert consultant: 5 to 9 years of experience
- Senior consultant: Over 10 years of experience
- Proven expertise in professional translation in at least one of these 3 languages: English, French or Arabic
- Ability to demonstrate quality of work through submission of 2 past work samples and at least 2 letters of recommendation from past clients
- Search will be interested in identifying at least one sworn translator in Belgium among those who will be selected
