Interpreters convert spoken or sign language statements from one language to another. They work in situations where people who do not speak the same language need to understand one another. If you can speak one or more foreign languages and would like an important role where you can work in areas like politics, business or public service, this position could be for you.

Interpreting involves listening to, understanding and memorising content in the original 'source' language, then reproducing statements, questions and speeches in a different 'target' language. This is often done in only one direction, normally into the interpreter's native language, but may be on a two‑way basis.
