Full Job Description

Description/Duties

First review of all applications will be Monday, July 13, 2026.

A Court Interpreter provides simultaneous and consecutive Spanish and English interpretation of court proceedings for Spanish-speaking defendants. This employee interprets and translates English into Spanish and Spanish into English, orally and in writing, respectively, in all types of court cases handled by the Mesa Municipal Court. This class ensures the interpreting/translating needs of the court are met, and schedules interpreters of all languages as required by the court.

A Court Interpreter must thoroughly understand and have a command of modes of interpretation, interpreter protocol, and ethics, as well as the procedures and processes within their assigned division in order to effectively provide interpretation and translation services. The interpersonal communications in this classification requires tact, patience, and professionalism when providing interpretation and translation services. Employees in this class are expected to perform day to-day activities independently within established guidelines and procedures under general supervision. This class receives general supervision from a Court Supervisor for court services through meetings, reports, and conferences regarding volume, accuracy, and timeliness of work completed. The pay structure recognizes the higher-level interpreting skills and knowledge required of the position; therefore, the Court Interpreter will not be eligible to receive the added compensation as applied to the City's Bilingual Compensation Program. An employee of this class will be required to work weekends and/or holidays on a rotating basis. This class is FLSA nonexempt.
