Hi there,
I'm looking for a part-time in-house translator post in the UK to go alongside my freelance work. Are there any good places to look for these? Google searches have so far only come up with generic job agencies who do list some translator positions but not many, especially as I am not London-based. Is there somewhere specific these jobs can be found, or are there just not many of them around?
Many thanks!

Have you tried searching under Jobs in LinkedIn? There are often translator jobs there.

Why not contact them directly? Jun 25, 2019

Why not search for the translation agencies in your geographical area of interest and contact them directly?
Even better, why not go in person?

Hi Kaya,

On CVLibrary and Reed.co there are ongoing vacancies for translators all over the UK.

Good luck with your search!

Thank you for your replies! Jun 26, 2019

Yes I had started contacting agencies directly but it seems most around here do not have in-house workers any more... high rents probably!
