For some of these languages we especially need female interpreters to work in areas where female shortage exists, such as Women’s Services, where a general occupational exemption under the Equality Act 2010 Schedule 9 applies.
Work would be allocated on an “as and when required” basis with different shift patterns available to suit flexible working. Within the Supplementary Staffing office system, there is no guarantee of a fixed amount of hours each week as this is a demand‑led service. Supplementary Staffing workers can submit their availability in advance and shifts can be booked either online or by telephone.
Applicants who fail to note the language(s) applied for in their application will not be shortlisted. All successful candidates will be required to complete an online mandatory Induction Programme.
