Freelance Book Translator

Remote, USA Full-time Posted 2025-04-28

We are seeking experienced book translators to work directly with authors and help them share their stories in a different language.

Reedsy's vetted group of freelancers help authors through every stage of their publishing journey: from editing to translating to marketing their book. Our professionals have worked on a range of widely acclaimed novels, such as The Hunger Games, Originals (Adam Grant), and His Dark Materials series (Phillip Pullman).

We are looking for translators of the following language pairs:
? English > German
? English > Italian
? English > French
? English > Spanish
? English > Portuguese

Requirements

The qualifications we look for are:
? 3+ years of translating experience
? At least 5 published books that are well-reviewed (and available on Amazon, Apple Books or Google Books) for each of the language pairs your offer
? Experience working for a traditional publisher will be positively valued

Though not a requirement, we appreciate it if you are able to copy-edit/proofread your translations (or you work in tandem with a partner who can do it) in order to deliver an error-free translation.

Benefits

As a translator on Reedsy, you will be able to set your own rates, manage your workload, work where and when you want, collaborate through our intuitive platform, and enjoy Reedsy's payment protection.
