Marches HR is a multi-award-winning, independent HR consultancy with bases in Hereford and Ludlow. We regularly carry out sensitive and complex HR investigations for clients across England and Wales. This includes a particular specialism in safeguarding-related HR investigations, so accuracy, care and discretion really matter to us.

We’re a small, supportive team and we’re looking for a reliable and detail-focused Transcription Assistant to support us on a casual, as-needed basis. The role involves checking and tidying investigation meeting transcripts to make sure they’re accurate, clear and professionally presented, often relating to sensitive subject matter.

About the role
 

The work mainly involves reviewing auto-generated transcripts against audio recordings, carefully checking spelling, grammar and punctuation and tidying the content so it reads clearly and professionally. You’ll be working with material that requires a high level of care and confidentiality, so this role would suit someone who takes real pride in producing accurate, thoughtful work behind the scenes. 

While the role's very flexible, we do have high standards when it comes to the service we provide to our clients. Meeting agreed deadlines, working carefully and producing consistently accurate, high-quality work are essential. 

The role's mainly remote. As long as agreed deadlines are met, work can be carried out at times that suit you including at evenings and weekends. There are no set working hours and no expectation of availability at particular times. 

From time to time, you may also be asked to attend in-person meetings, including to support with live transcription or note-taking. For this reason, you must live within 2 hours of Hereford, Leominster or Ludlow.
