TypeOut began in 2008 and provides a reliable, accurate and efficient transcription service to many business sectors. We have established long term business relationships with blue chip organisations, local authorities, police forces, central government, universities and small businesses.

Our client base grows weekly and the nature of the work is exciting, interesting and varied. We are currently seeking, experienced, self-employed, home based audio typists/transcribers.

The most important skill required is that you need to be accurate and reliable. TypeOut prides itself on the quality of the transcriptions it produces and we seek typists who strive to achieve the same level of accuracy.
