Your team

  • You will be part of the Language Services Division in the Directorate General Communications. We provide translation, editing, proofreading, and language technology and terminology services in all EU languages, as well as offering advice on linguistic matters. Our work covers a wide range of texts for expert audiences and the general public, and includes translating multilingual content for our website aimed at making the ECB's work accessible to nonexpert readers.


In your role as a trainee Romanian Translator, you will be part of one of the Division's three multilingual sections.


We are responsible for communicating the ECB's messages to over 300 million Europeans who do not have English as their native language.

You will be the ECB's voice in Romanian and will work closely with translators, language technologists and administrators, as well as experts from other ECB business areas.


Your role

  • As a trainee Romanian Translator you will:
  • translate (non-legal) texts from English into Romanian;
- revise and proofread texts in Romanian;
- help to identify, extract and compile terminology, particularly in the fields of economics and finance;
- align previously translated documents so they can be added to the translation memory databases.


The position offers you excellent opportunities to use state-of-the-art language technology tools in your daily work and to gain insight into language services activities in an EU institution.

You will be part of a multicultural team that strives for continuous innovation to make a positive impact on the lives of European citizens.


Qualifications, experience and skills

  • Essential:
- a bachelor's degree or higher in modern languages or translation;
- a good knowledge of the MS Office package;
- a mastery-level (C2) command of Romanian;
- an advanced (C1) command of English, according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.


Desired:
- a master's degree (or being close to completing a master's degree) in modern languages or translation, or a master's degree in any other field combined with postgraduate studies in translation;
- completed university courses in translation from English into Romanian and/or experience in English into Romanian translation;
- familiarity with computer-assisted translation tools;
- an interest in financial and economic affairs;
- an intermediate (B1) command of another official EU language.

You are curious and eager to learn, and want to further develop your ability to analyse complex information. You are keen to collaborate with others, pursue team goals and learn from other people's diverse perspectives. You strive to know and anticipate stakeholder needs, and will signal any need for change and propose alternative solutions.


You are motivated to contribute to the ECB's mission, to serve the citizens of the EU as a member of a public institution and to work with colleagues from all over Europe.

You are keen to be part of our team and to use your skills and competencies to achieve the aims of this position.
