As James Bond would surely testify, when you work for the security services to protect Britain, danger is simply part of the job.
詹姆斯-邦德肯定是要接受过测试才能上岗的。如果你的工作是要为保护英国的安全服务的话,那么危险就是你工作的一部分了。
But in a move likely to raise a quizzical eyebrow from the fictional super-spy, MI5 is now recruiting its own health and safety team.
现在军情五处要招募一支健康与安全团队,这件事要是被詹姆斯-邦德知道了,可能他会挑眉嘲笑吧。
The home of secret missions and risky counter-espionage has decided it needs a health and safety manager as well as two advisers to keep its staff out of danger.
身为“情报之家”的军情五处和高危的反间谍活动,现在决定要聘用一名经理和两名顾问来负责情报人员的健康与安全。
But any applicants face an uphill struggle to find out more about the £60,000 role to ensure MI5's operations are as safe as possible.
为了保证机构的安全,军情五处愿意提供6万镑的酬劳来招人。但是所有应聘者都遇到了一个难题,那就是他们找不到与岗位相关的信息。
To protect national security, they will be told nothing about where they will be working, who with or what technology will be involved.
为了保护国家的安全,求职者将不会被告知,在哪里工作、和谁一起工作、或者工作需要哪些技能。
Possible candidates for the manager's position are even warned they will be told very little about the job they are applying for.
想要申请经理职位的求职者还被告知,他们只能知道很少有关职位的信息。
The advert on the MI5 website says: "We can't show you the buildings. We can't talk about the people you'll work with. We can't tell you much about the job. We can't give you the exact locations. We can't mention the kind of technology involved."
军情五处官网上的招聘广告是这样写的“我们不会告诉你我们在哪里。我们不会告诉你和你一起工作的人是什么样的。我们不会告诉你很多关于工作的信息。我们不会给你确切的地址。我们不会说明工作中我们需要什么样的技能。”
The description reveals only that the job is "London based with some UK travel".
招聘广告中只提到了一点“在伦敦,并有一些国内出差任务”。
Highlighting the challenges of working for the security service, it adds: "What we can tell you is that whatever your role at MI5, you'll be contributing to protecting the UK from threats to national security including terrorism and espionage."
在强调为安全部门服务的挑战性时,军情五处在招聘信息中写道,“我们能够告诉你的是,无论你在军情五处做什么,都会为保护英国不受恐怖分子与间谍威胁做出贡献”。
"Like other large organisations, at MI5 we use a variety of equipment to carry out our work, except here our work is often covert and our equipment classified."
“和其他大型机构一样,在军情五处工作,我们在工作中会用到很多设备。不同的是,在这里,我们的工作和设备都是保密的。”
Applicants will have to get through a number of vetting stages before being accepted for the role. If picked, they would of course find out the full details.
求职者会经历一系列的审查,才会得到这份工作。如果他们被录用了,那他们肯定就会知道工作的具体细节了。
