contents Translators can be regarded as submanifolds which satisfy the mean curvature flow equation when evolving by translations along a distinguished vector field of the ambient space. We study translators in Generalised Robertson-Walker spacetimes, due to their importance as Lorentzian manifolds, and because they admit a natural conformal Killing timelike vector field carrying substantial geometric information, which will play the role of this translating vector field. We identify three one-parameter families of warping functions for which these objects exist. As a first example of this notion of translator, we classify the analogues of the classical Grim Reapers within this context.
