TransPerfect Is More Than Just a Job… Our greatest asset is our people, and nothing is more important to us than ensuring that everyone knows that. Each of our 100+ offices has its own individual identity, and each also has its own unique rewards.

Do you have existing sales experience within the life sciences or localization services industry? Are you looking for a role where you can exhibit the utmost integrity, deliver the highest quality, provide outstanding service, act as if you own it, work with a sense of urgency, treat everyone with respect, operate as a cohesive team, celebrate diversity, be financially responsible, and achieve results? Then we’d like to hear from you.

Position Summary

The main focus of the role is to utilize your existing knowledge and experience of the life sciences or localization industry to develop new business relationships and new accounts via a direct sales approach, with full responsibility of the process from lead generation through to close and full account ownership, focused on the life sciences industry.

• Identify, qualify, develop, and close sales opportunities
• Develop an effective understanding of the capabilities, benefits, and competitive advantages of TransPerfect services

• Promote TransPerfect by educating clients on the company’s various services
• Present TransPerfect solutions via one-on-one, group, online, and in-person meetings
• Manage and control pricing and contractual issues by developing a thorough understanding of company procedures
