Acolad UK (formerly Ubiqus) is an international language services company, with offices throughout Europe and North America. We provide transcription and minute‑taking services for meetings, events and conferences around the world and across a range of sectors.

We have House of Lords and Commons amongst our clients, and are looking for someone who is willing to attend Hansard meetings in person.

We are seeking a full-time writer to join our team based in London. Our writers are responsible for producing transcripts and summary documents for a range of high-profile clients. The successful candidate will be degree-educated, with excellent written and verbal communication, outstanding research skills and the ability to manage their own workload to meet challenging deadlines. A good typing speed is also advantageous. Experience of transcription is also advantageous but not essential.

The position is a client-facing one, requiring in-person and virtual attendance of events. Our writers represent Acolad on-site to our clients, and so the successful candidate will have a confident and professional manner.

Employee benefits include a minimum of 24 days’ holiday, in addition to bank holidays; the ability to work from home when not attending events in person; access to a private health insurance scheme; and internal training and development, as well as opportunities to progress into different roles within the company.

Suitable candidates will be sent a short writing test to complete in their own time. The writing test will allow candidates to see what a typical job for us will be like, and allow us to ascertain their writing abilities and suitability for the role.
