TRAINEE PROGRAMME

The trainees are initially based at the office in the heart of Sheffield for a period of four months. If this first stage is successfully completed to our full satisfaction, the trainee advances to a second six-twelve month stage (depending on individual circumstances) involving greater responsibility, and including the option of gaining several months’ in-office training at beo in Stuttgart or at Matrix in Munich or any of their subsidiaries. After completion of the traineeship, there are multiple full-time employment opportunities, depending on the relevant fields of interest and skills.

During the Trainee Programme, the trainee translates selected projects from a variety of business areas covering the whole range from marketing to technical manuals and software translation. He/she is trained on various Translation Memory systems. During this period, the trainee receives coaching from highly experienced translators and support from the entire team. For graduates specialising in technical translation, this represents a great opportunity to gain experience in translating in a dynamic and “controlled” environment.

Starting date
The programme was launched in April, 2009, but applications from excellent candidates (university degree in translation or a related discipline) are welcome at any time.

Accommodation
We will offer assistance if needed.
