Translation help please.

Тебе этот вопрос необходимо задать другой собеседнице.

The last word does not seem to translate well though I think I get the meaning pretty clearly.  If someone can help that would be great.  Thanks

Without any more context this is as close as you're going to get.

Собеседник (female -ца) is a word which does not have a direct translation in English. Some old dictionaries suggest 'interlocutor' but few native speakers seem to have heard of this word. So this is like 'someone you are talking to'. In your case I would translate it as just 'ask someone else'.
