Description
The Directorate General Communications of the European Central Bank (ECB) is seeking applications from recent graduates, or students who are close to completing their studies, to participate in a traineeship in the Language Services Division for a period of 3 months, in Frankfurt, Germany.
The aim of the traineeship is to give the successful applicant the opportunity to gain experience in translation-related tasks. While at the ECB, the trainee will be expected to contribute to the translation of texts from English into Bulgarian, the revision of texts in Bulgarian and the proofreading of texts in Bulgarian destined for publication. The successful applicant will also be expected to identify, extract and compile terminology – in particular, in the financial and economic fields – and to align relevant previously translated texts, thereby expanding the Division’s existing Bulgarian translation memories. The trainee’s work will be revised by the staff translators of the Division’s Bulgarian unit.
Eligibility
- Have Master’s degree (or qualification of an equivalent level) in modern languages or translation, or be a student currently in their final year of such a course, or be a graduate who is pursuing (or has recently completed) postgraduate studies in translation;
- Mastery-level command of Bulgarian;
- Interest in financial and economic affairs would be an asset;
- Familiarity with a terminology management package such as SDL MultiTerm, and with the suite of SDL translation tools, would be an asset;
- Advanced-level command of English, with proven drafting ability;
- Intermediate-level knowledge of at least one other official language of the EU;
- Working knowledge of MS Office (in particular Word, Excel and PowerPoint).
Remuneration
The trainee grant is the exact amount of EUR 1,050 per month. The trainee grant is increased to EUR 1,900 per month for trainees who have completed at least two years of PhD study and who apply for a traineeship vacancy that requires such a level of qualification.
