Hi guys,

My partner is currently seeking a career and is unsure of exactly what's out there. She's rather talented with the old languages and is an Oxford graduate that, in addition to English, speaks Russian and German to a native standard, fluent in Spanish and unsurprisingly has a pretty good grasp of other Romance languages etc. Even more amazingly she has common sense (usually) and social skills wink

I would have thought something for an oil company, telecomms or similar would be ideal given the broad spread of languages, however, like most industries jobs are a bit thin on the ground. If anyone has any pointers or knows of any companies who'd like to employ someone like that, give me a shout... Thanks for your help in advance.

(In Manchester, will travel.)

Might be worth taking a look at the Barclays careers site, they do sometimes require languages skills for emerging markets and have a fairly large site south of Knutsford.
