Localisation Coordinator - FTC
Raspberry Pi Foundation | Cambridge | apply.workable.com |
Localisation Coordinator
Location: Cambridge, UK
Salary: £29,750–32,000 p.a. full-time equivalent, dependent on experience
Basis: Fixed-term until Dec 2024; full-time, part-time or flexible
Eligibility: You must be eligible to work in the UK
The role
The Raspberry Pi Foundation offers free computing education resources that young people all over the world use to learn about coding and creating things with digital technologies. To make these resources more accessible, especially for young people from educationally disadvantaged backgrounds, we work to localise them in line with local communities' needs.
For example, our more than 200 free online projects are available in up to 32 languages thanks to the efforts of the volunteer translators we support. We are also currently working to localise our cutting-edge Experience AI classroom resources for multiple countries and schooling systems, in collaboration with delivery partners and language service providers.
We are looking for a Localisation Coordinator to join the Foundation’s translation and localisation team to support our localisation work and the translation volunteer community. Working closely with the Localisation Manager and the other Localisation Coordinator within the communications and marketing team, you will implement translation processes day to day, contribute to improving processes and tools, and provide support to volunteer translators.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who will relish a diverse role in an organisation that is at the forefront of the movement to broaden access to computing education. You may be someone who brings experience of technical translation processes and wishes to gain experience of project and community management.
Or you may have experience of working for a language service provider and are interested in working on the customer side. Or you may have strong administrative skills and are looking to use these to support young people's education in a subject that is key for their future.
You do not need to bring any coding skills to this role, but you need to look forward to starting to learn the basics. You should have a strong eye for detail and be a clear communicator. You should also enjoy learning about translation technology and getting to grips with software systems and technical processes.
We strive to make the Foundation a place where talented people who care about our mission can do the best work of their careers. We have a flexible and collaborative approach to all aspects of our work. If you’re the right person for the job, we’ll make it work for you, and you can be confident that you’ll be working with an exceptional team.

We work all over the world, with teams based in the UK, Ireland, North America, and India, and partnerships with mission-aligned organisations in over 40 countries.
We are at the forefront of the global movement to help young people learn about computing and digital making. You can read more about our mission, values, and goals in our Annual Review 2022 and our Strategy 2022–2025.
