Careers

Exciting and challenging work is even more exciting with a comprehensive package to match, which is why we offer an attractive, performance-based salary. People who perform well should be financially rewarded for it too.

Provision for your retirement is important! We think the same, which is why we offer all colleagues a workplace pension plan as a matter of course. And rather than pocketing the tax savings for the company, we pass on the entire tax benefit to our employees through deferred compensation.

Don’t like the idea of a 9-to-5 day? We’ll find a solution. Your day can start as late as 10 a.m. or as early as 8 a.m. – whenever you’re most productive.

We care about our employees’ health, and offer a range of nutrition, exercise and safety-related health promotion services.

We offer you an optional, tolingo-subsidised annual pass for the local public transport systems, which not only allows you to save money, but also to do something good for the environment.

As a tolingo employee, you can take advantage of great employee discounts on a variety of products from well-known manufacturers as well as a number of cultural events.

‘Lucky lunches’ that help employees get to know colleagues from other departments, summer and winter parties, or even a simple after-work table tennis match – we organise numerous different events where we can have fun together as a team. Our life as a group doesn’t stop at 6 p.m.

All of our employees get 26 days holiday per calendar year. Furthermore, every employee has the option of taking up to four additional days of paid leave.

For official purposes

Companies with international operations frequently require translations that are recognised by ministries, authorities and courts. Certified translations are carried out by our sworn specialist translators. They have the right stamp and can ensure official certification.

We have big plans, but we can only achieve them together. At tolingo, we recognize and value everyone's contribution to achieving our goals. We never lose sight of our goals, and are always ready to go the extra mile to achieve them.

Our focus is on the client. Whether the work involves a CV translation or a complex translation project, our dedicated contacts deliver the best solution for every client.

We embrace and encourage a culture of open feedback. When communicating, we aim to always be transparent and meet each person where they are. Respect and trust are two cornerstones of communication for us.

We bring the world together – even in our offices. We’re proud to have around 50 employees from more than 10 countries working at tolingo. We nurture each individual’s strengths and ensure that we encourage our continued growth together.

Personal initiative is not just a ‘nice, but nonessential’ extra. We want everyone to express their ideas and be actively involved. Our aim is to work together to define and optimise processes and play a part in the future development of tolingo.

We develop an individual induction plan for every new employee to help them settle in as well as possible. On-the-job training, coaching and various training courses help us get you up to speed in just a short time, and your personal mentor will be on hand as your contact throughout your entire induction period.

Even as a small company, being socially responsible is important to us. This is why we offer young people internship opportunities with us, giving them practical insights to help them choose a career. We also support local charitable organisations, and we are involved in two sponsorships on an international level – for a boy from Haiti and a girl from Guinea-Bissau.

We love what we do, and enjoy going to work each day. And thanks to after-work events and other company parties, we also have fun together outside office hours.
