Get Paid to Be the Expert in Your Language

You're the person who spots the typo no one else sees. The one who knows when a comma is wrong before you can explain why. Now get paid for it.

We're hiring Swedish Quality Specialist for a remote transcription project. You'll be the person the team comes to when something doesn't look right — reviewing quality, answering language questions, and keeping work on track. If you're fluent in Swedish and sharp in English, this is your kind of gig.

No corporate fluff. Just sharp eyes, strong instincts, and clear communication.

What You'll Do

• Review transcriptions for language quality, grammar, spelling, and accuracy
• Assign tasks and oversee progress to keep the project moving
• Be the first stop when reviewers flag quality issues, following our QC workflow guide
• Answer language-specific questions from the team
• Escalate unresolved quality issues to the Regional Lead
• Communicate clearly and promptly in English

What We're Looking For

• Native or full proficiency in Swedish (ISO:sv_se)
• Strong working proficiency in English — assessment required
• Sharp grammar, orthography, and punctuation skills — proficiency test required
• Experience in linguistics, translation, transcription, or localization (strongly preferred)
• Your own computer, reliable internet, and strong web research skills
• Responsive communicator with consistent email access
• Able to onboard within two (2) weeks

Why PPH?

We're not going to hit you with a mission statement. Here's what actually matters:

• Your language skills are rare — and we pay like we know it
• No waiting around — onboard fast, start earning fast
• Work from anywhere, on your schedule
• Supportive team, zero micromanagement
• Real project experience with a global data company
• Work that actually matters — clean language data doesn't build itself
