Summary

Overview

The translator plays a crucial role in enabling HMCTS and other partners within the Ministry of
Justice to fulfil the obligations of their respective Welsh Language Schemes. The post holder will
require linguistic skills of the highest standard in both English and Welsh in order to translate

Job Description

Key responsibilities:

Translate a wide range of documents e.g. agenda, reports, minutes, letters, e-mails in order to ensure that HMCTS and wider members of the MoJ family comply with their Welsh Language Schemes.

Proof-read own work and work of other translators within the team.

Provide a simultaneous translation service in meetings, and also in court and tribunal hearings later on after receiving the appropriate training.
