Language Factory

Infoxchange Australia believes in creating sustainable learning and earning opportunities for disadvantaged members of our community.

Language Factory does just that, utilising the skills of linguistically and culturally diverse public housing residents, alongside accredited professionals, to provide cost-effective community interpreting and translating services.

Language Factory breaks down one of the biggest obstacles citizens face when trying to access essential community services: the language barrier.

The capacity to participate in local activities and receive community information is a requirement of any democratic society. Much of this information is not available in languages other than English, whether it is written or spoken.

Accredited interpreters and translators work with public housing residents proficient in a range of more than 30 languages other than English to provide:

•    On-site interpreting, for face-to-face sessions and meetings, from one-on-one to group settings.
•    Translation services, for written information such as community surveys, service-related documentation, sports events and booking forms.

Language Factory will work to understand a group’s particular approach to community development, to provide the highest quality of interpreting and translation services so that linguistically diverse communities are up to date with all the necessary information needed to participate in community decision making and in creating vibrant spaces for themselves.

If you are fluent in a first language (especially those from the African continent), have competent English spoken and reading skills, and have an interest in community language services and community development, we encourage you to contact Language Factory about potential employment opportunities.
