Language Specialists

As an agency collecting intelligence from all over the world in many different languages and dialects, we couldn't operate without our teams of talented linguists. Working primarily from London, they have the chance to use their language skills day in, day out, translating raw material from both written and spoken sources. It's both fascinating and rewarding.  Fascinating, as you will be working with subject matters that lies at the heart of world events.  Rewarding, as you will be the person making intelligence accessible to people throughout the Service.

Throughout your career, you'll also have the chance to get involved in other activities, which might include interpreting, role-playing for training courses, carrying out foreign language website research and using your expertise to help other Government agencies. There may also be opportunities for those with the appropriate skills to assist with special operations overseas or to train others in their specialist languages.
