About the role

We are currently looking for experienced French Canadian linguists to join our Theology Talent Community. We are seeking linguists with a strong background in Christian theological translation and a deep understanding of Scripture, doctrine, and ecclesiastical traditions. We prioritize linguists with expertise in areas such as biblical studies, liturgy, homiletics, and denominational documentation, where accuracy and fidelity to theological meaning are essential. What You'll Deliver Theological Translation: Translate Christian theological content - including sermons, Scripture commentaries, catechetical materials, liturgical texts, and devotional resources - between English and your native language with a high degree of accuracy and doctrinal consistency. Denominational & Cultural Alignment: Ensure translations reflect market-specific ecclesiastical traditions, theological terminology, and formatting conventions appropriate to the target faith community. Quality & Doctrinal Awareness: Apply rigorous quality standards to deliver precise, faithful content where theological accuracy and sensitivity to scriptural intent are critical. Subtitling & Localization: Adapt sermons, Christian media, and ministry video content for multilingual audiences through accurate subtitling and culturally appropriate localization. Collaboration: Work closely with production and quality teams to meet client requirements and deadlines.
