Language Talent Programme
2 months ago
Job summary
In this exciting 11-week paid placement, you�ll use your language skills and cultural knowledge to make a real impact on our operations. Day to day, you�ll develop your understanding of language as you analyse, transcribe, and translate audio and written materials. Some of these materials may be technical or specialised in nature, giving you a chance to master new skills in a unique field, but it doesn�t stop there.
Job description
Here, your influence goes beyond language. Your cultural understanding will be invaluable as you collaborate closely with customers and partners, providing context for your team. In fact, you may even get the chance to draft Intelligence reports and conduct research using a variety of tools during your time with us. Equipped with specialist tools, you�ll uncover valuable insights that you�ll then present back to your team. Your work will be unique, varied and far from average. Importantly, you�ll be surrounded by colleagues who share your passion for languages, and you�ll get the opportunity to use your language skills and make an impact.��
We have limited spaces in London, Cheltenham, Manchester and Scarborough, so we�d encourage you to be open and flexible with your application.
Training and Development�
From day one, we�ll be here to support you. Whether you join GCHQ or MI5, you�ll receive a comprehensive training and development package in both language and analysis, including classroom-based learning and hands-on training, which will enable you to grow your skills and perform to the best of your abilities. Throughout your internship and career, you�ll be supported by trained professionals.�
We�re committed to developing our staff, but we know this will look different for everyone. That�s why there�ll be lots of tailored training, coaching and mentoring as we work with you to build the skills you need, enabling you to excel throughout your internship and chosen career. At MI5 and GCHQ, you�ll find an inclusive and supportive working environment that�s designed to encourage open minds and attitudes. We value and nurture talent and are committed to helping you fulfil your potential.��
At GCHQ, you�ll have the opportunity to apply for a permanent position with us once you�ve completed the programme. If successful in your tests and competency interview, you�ll join our vibrant community as a Language Specialist.�
If you do decide to join us as a Language Specialist, you�ll have the opportunity to apply for our Language Career Development Scheme within the first five years of working at GCHQ. This scheme is designed to help you broaden and develop your language skills. In addition to this, you�ll also have the chance to become a member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists (CIoL) and gain recognised professional linguist qualifications.�
At MI5, you�ll have a personal mentor who will introduce you to the organisation, and a language mentor who will enhance your language skills. This mentor will tailor practice materials to your needs to prepare you for your language test. Plus, as one of the government�s leading employers of linguists, when you join us, you�ll become part of a vibrant network of language enthusiasts who share your love of language.�
Like GCHQ, you�ll also have the opportunity to apply for a permanent MI5 position at the end of your placement. As a permanent member of our team, you�ll be provided with regular language lessons so you can maintain and develop your skills and become part of a thriving linguist community.�
Person specification
We welcome applications if you have, or expect to obtain, a 2:2 degree or above in Russian, you�ll either be in the final year of your degree or have graduated in Summer 2021 or later. Whatever your background, you�ll be adaptable, motivated and collaborative, always keen to use your language skills and learn new things.� You don�t need a technical background for this role, but you must be willing to pick up new skills - especially those that are technical and complement your language abilities.�
