    Freelance Interpreter (English/Barka [Berka] Kunama)

    Organization


    MCIS Language Solutions

    As a freelance interpreter with MCIS Language Solutions, you will provide essential spoken interpretation services in various community settings, such as hospitals, police stations, tribunal hearings, schools, and more. Your primary role will be to facilitate clear and accurate communication between English and Barka (Berka) Kunama speakers, ensuring individuals with limited language proficiency have access to vital services.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Interpretation: Provide accurate, clear, and professional interpretation between English and Barka (Berka) Kunama in community settings. You will be expected to interpret in high-pressure environments such as healthcare and legal situations, requiring quick thinking and attention to detail.
    • Cultural Sensitivity: Demonstrate cultural awareness when working with diverse communities, ensuring that both the meaning and tone of statements are faithfully conveyed while respecting cultural nuances.
    • Reading and Oral Translation: Read and orally translate written materials, such as application forms, medical records, or legal documents, as needed. This includes both translating short passages and conveying the information with precision and clarity.
    • Facilitating Access to Services: Support vulnerable populations by breaking down linguistic barriers in crucial interactions. Your work will help individuals navigate complex systems, such as healthcare, law enforcement, and social services, enabling them to receive the assistance they need.
    • Travel: Travel to assignment locations as required. You must be able to access assignments via car, public transportation, or other means. Flexibility is key, as assignments may vary in location and time.
    • Remote Assignments: In addition to in-person interpretation, you will also handle over-the-phone or video interpretation assignments. These can be completed remotely, offering flexibility and the ability to work from home when applicable.
    • Professionalism and Confidentiality: Maintain a high level of professionalism and confidentiality while interpreting sensitive information, particularly in healthcare, legal, or other confidential contexts.

    Requirements

    • Fluency in English and Barka (Berka) Kunama (both written and spoken) is required. A strong command of both languages is necessary for accurate and effective interpretation.
    • Reading Proficiency: Strong ability to read and interpret written documents accurately, converting them into clear and precise oral translations.
    • Soft Skills: Excellent interpersonal skills, including empathy, patience, and a commitment to service. You must be able to build rapport with individuals from various cultural backgrounds and offer a supportive, non-judgmental service.
    • Transportation: Ability to travel to different locations as needed. A reliable form of transportation, whether personal or public, is necessary.
    • Legal Eligibility: Candidates must be legally entitled to work in Canada.

    Training and Support

    • Training: If you are new to interpretation, MCIS provides a free online training module designed to prepare you for assignments. This module must be completed before starting any work.
    • Experienced Interpreters: We welcome applications from experienced interpreters who have been tested and certified in community interpreting. Your expertise will be highly valued.
