I'm trying to understand whether this sentence sounds fully natural and native-like in modern English biographical or journalistic writing:

"Upon his return to China, he was entrusted to work at Jilin University as a full-time professor and chief scientist in a branch of China's biggest deep earth exploration program."

I'm not asking whether it's grammatically correct. What I'm really wondering is:

• Does "was entrusted to work at" sound idiomatic here?
• Would native speakers normally phrase this differently?
• Does the sentence read like something written by a native English writer, or does it carry a slightly translated / official / non-native tone?
• Would a native speaker immediately suspect that this sentence was written or translated by a non-native English speaker?

I'm especially interested in subtle stylistic or collocational issues rather than strict grammar.
