Vedoucí front office
Recently, banks and other financial institutions in the Czech Republic often use English words in the names of positions (e.g. teller, account manager), mainly after capital contribution of foreign investor.
Front office is composed of employees personally dealing with customers.
Other possibility: "Vedoucí Front-office"
Or: "Vedoucí Front office"
Also possible: "Manaer front office"
Or, if the person is employed in bank: "Vedoucí oddělení bankovních slueb" (but this is rather outmoded).

\'Czech linguists\' shouldn\'t need reminding that \'front office\' is not a Czech word, in addition it has no gender and can\'t really be declined, thus rendering it functionless in Czech language.
Let\'s bear in mind:
front office (n) = ústředí, ředitelství, vedení (podniku)

Note added at 2003-03-11 08:52:41 (GMT) Post-grading

Just to add: not so very long ago \'front office\' was known in Czech as \'ústředí\'. For example, see:
Peprník J. (1982) Slovník amerikanismů, SPN
Use of English \'front office\' (non-translation) is part of a current fad in Czech.

Zenny Sadlon
: Good hunch, but, for one thing, not inclusive enough. You left out the "front office".

Well 'ústředí' is the front office, like you Zenny, I think, I don't shoving in an English word and hoping for the best, Czech will be ruined in a few years

vedoucí pro přímý styk se zákazníky
I saw this expression "Front Office" as a description for office with counters for direct contact with customers. Or the translation could be "vedoucí oddělení pro přímý styk se zákazníky"
Something went wrong...
