English Language Checker (Grade B3)
CoE - Council of Europe
Strasbourg, France
Posted: 2 July, Deadline: 18 July
The European Court of Human Rights’s judgments are highly influential. You’ll make sure they’re highly comprehensible too.
E150/2014
(Fixed-term contract)
Based in Strasbourg, France, the Council of Europe brings together the resources of 47 member states to advance democratic principles based on the European Convention on Human Rights. You will make a significant contribution as you review the linguistic quality of draft judgments and decisions from the European Court of Human Rights, including some leading cases.
At all times, you will ensure that documents are clear, easily comprehensible and grammatically correct, including liaison with the author where appropriate. Equally importantly, you will identify any technical issues and conduct research to resolve them, assist lawyers in developing their English drafting skills, and provide advice and support as required. You may also find yourself involved in organising and leading language workshops, whilst contributing to our linguistic databases and attending divisional terminology meetings, so you can expect a high profile and plenty of variety.
Alongside a relevant qualification in Languages or Law, you will possess a proven professional record in language checking, translation or legal positions. Naturally you should be a native English speaker with an expert command of the language plus a good knowledge of French, and you will bring basic familiarity with the European Convention and associated case law. Finally, it is vital that you have outstanding analytical skills, an organised and methodical approach and proven ability to operate on your own initiative, plus a high level of flexibility.
Applications should be made in English or French using the Council of Europe’s online application system at before the deadline of 18 July 2014.

Posted: 3 July, Deadline: 16 July
Introduction
ESN is the European network of senior management in public social services, bringing together over 100 national, regional, and local organisations from in 34 European countries to promote the development of effective social policy and social care practice through the exchange of knowledge and expertise.
ESN has been supported by the European Commission under the PROGRESS programme (2007-2013). This agreement has just been renewed for 4 years (2014-17) under the EU Programme for Social Change and Innovation (PSCI).
As a unique network we contribute to European policy-making in social, health and education policy and support our members to improve the quality of social services. You can read more about ESN at www.esn-eu.org.
We are recruiting a Policy Officer to join the policy team at our secretariat in Brighton (UK). The right candidate will have enthusiasm, professional experience and be knowledgeable about European Union policy and institutions. S/he should have research skills, sensitivity to and willingness to learn about the social work sector. Knowledge of public services or wider social/health policy; for example, disability policy would be an advantage.
Our secretariat is a dynamic, international environment where a number of languages are spoken. Members of the team support each other in their work through open discussion and shared working. Besides working with colleagues in the secretariat, you would also meet regularly with senior professionals and managers of social services at seminars or working groups. You would represent ESN at European level and meet colleagues from other social and health care organisations and you will be sensitive to different cultural ways of working. There is a good deal of European travel involved in working for ESN.
If you think you combine sensitivity to social work values, the ability to research, identify and articulate policy messages and build relationships with ESN members and EU-level stakeholders, we look forward to hearing from you. Your initiative, ideas and growing expertise will be valued. We try to ensure that every member of staff has space to make the job their own.

Salary and Conditions
Pay would be on a scale starting at £25,000 - £28,000 (32,000€ - 35,000€) which equates to approximately €2,000 net per month. Salary on appointment would depend on experience and would rise in line with performance. There is a portable stakeholder pension scheme. Holiday allowance is 21 days on a pro-rata basis and would rise with experience. We support staff in their professional development and provide regular performance review with opportunities for further training in line with responsibilities.
This post involves significant European travel, requiring you to be flexible with evenings and weekends; there is a scheme whereby staff claim back a proportion of unsociable hours worked.
Brighton
The ESN secretariat is based in central Brighton, a city with a large population of young professionals and a vibrant cultural and music scene. Its acclaimed arts festival is the biggest in England, an annual celebration of music, theatre, film, literature and debate now in its 50th year.
The University of Sussex has a strong European focus, attracting students from all over Europe and the world. The Sussex European Institute (SEI) was founded in 1992 and became a Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence in 1998, working closely with pre-eminent research centres in Europe and the wider world. Its many language schools also attract international students to come to the city in large numbers during the summer.
A number of international charities and companies are based in the city, which is well-connected, being just an hour from London (with the Eurostar to Brussels and Paris) and 30 minutes from Gatwick airport. Brighton is a good alternative to London with a slower pace of life, good restaurants and cafés and a strong and more affordable housing sector.
The job will be based at our office in Brighton so you must consider whether you are in a position to move here before applying. The secretariat has been based here since ESN was founded in 1998.
