English > French: European Investment Bank: French mother-tongue freelance translators/revisers

The European Investment Bank (EIB) is looking for five experienced freelance translators/revisers to reinforce the capacity of its French Unit for translation work from English into French.

We are aiming at long-term co-operation for the translation of highly specialised financial, accounting, banking and EU-related texts, partly for publication, partly for internal use by the Bank’s Board of Governors (Ministers of Finance) and Board of Directors. In all cases, interested freelancers must be able to deliver translations to the highest standards, fully researched and polished, perfectly formatted and ready to print – correction of print-proofs included as required.

Requirements and candidate profile:
- French mother tongue
- Qualified translator with a degree/certificate in translation or a completed university-level education
- Minimum 5 years full-time equivalent of relevant, recent and documented experience in translation and revision from English in the areas covered by this notice
- Area of expertise: finance, accounting, banking and the EU
- In-depth knowledge of EU financing facilities and terminology
- Availability and use of computer aided translation memories and terminology management tools
- Perfect command of MS Word and MS Excel.

The EIB is looking for individual candidates. Agencies or groups of translators may apply only on condition that they expressly agree to allow the Bank direct contact with their translator/reviser concerning linguistic matters (all other matters being dealt with directly with the agency), and that they apply with no more than two candidates (in two separate applications). The pre-selection of candidates will be based on submitted data (CVs, descriptions of relevant experience and references to be submitted on request). Short-listed candidates will be required to write a 4-page test translation against remuneration.

Please apply in English via the EIB’s job portal http:/&#XXXXXXXX#47;about/jobs/translators/LINGWWW02.htm no later than 26 August 2009. Only applications delivered using the form available for download at this site will be considered. Applications and CVs submitted in any other format than the one referred to in the portal will not be processed.
