Job Opportunity: Freelance Transcriptionist Fluent in Welsh
Perle is hiring a freelance transcriptionist fluent in Welsh for a remote transcription role. This is a paid contract position open to qualified contributors worldwide.
Role Overview
You will transcribe 2-speaker, channel-separated audio recordings in Welsh. Each file has two clearly separated speakers. Your job is to produce a clean, accurate, sequentially ordered transcript with speaker labels and timestamps.
What You Will Do
- Listen to 2-speaker audio recordings in Welsh
- Type out what each speaker says, accurately and in full
- Label each speaker turn as Speaker 1 or Speaker 2, matching the audio channel
- Add timestamps at the start of each speaker turn (format: HH:MM:SS)
- Ensure transcripts are sequential with no unexplained gaps
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Requirements

- Strong written Welsh — accurate spelling, punctuation, and grammar
- Ability to work independently and meet daily output targets
- Access to a computer with a stable internet connection
