Description
This exciting part-time opportunity is where you will contribute to the firm by translating documents. You will be part of a fast-growing team in Japan within the broader APAC team.

The position suits an academic, undergraduate or PhD student who will be graduating after April 2027 and looking to take on an additional role with flexible working.
