> 意図は、毎日語学の仕事していますから、たぶん全体的に語学力よくなる。

I want to say something like "my intended meaning was that since I will work
with languages, it may improve my general language ability."

Does this make sense? Are 意図 and 全体的に語学力 used correctly?

I think that even though you might be understood it is quite likely that you
won't.

意図 refere to what you're trying to achieve, what you have in mind to do.
Therefore, it's related to an action. I don't think that you can use it to
talk about “your intented meaning”. I think that 言いたいこと is much more faithful
to what you want to say.

語学力 would describe your “power” in linguistics, if you want to talk about your
ability to pick up a language 言語力 might have worked better but it already
refers to the ability of being able to _effectively_ communicate your thoughts
using a language.

Last point, たぶん is often used in conjunction with the “volitional” ending
(volitional is clearly not the best name but I don't know any other
alternatives) to soften the assumption, if used without the volitional ending
you state that your almost sure of what you describe.

Summarizing all I said, I would have said the following:

> 言いたいことは、語学に関する仕事をしているから、たぶん言語のすべてが理解しやすくなるのでしょうか。

I rephrased 全体的に because, here 言語が全体的に理解しやすくなる feels like you're refering only
to one language and not all of them. 言語が全体的に理解しやすくなる would mean “the overall
understanding of this language would become easier.”

Very last, 仕事をしている means that you're employed and that you're doing this job.
If you want to let the “will” interpretation possible (like suggested in your
translation) remove the ている part.

The short answer for your usage questions is:

意図{いと｝は、: doesn't make sense.

全｛ぜん｝体｛たい｝的｛てき｝に語｛ご｝学｛がく｝力{りょく}: makes sense.

My answer depends on the context of your sentence. Stand alone text vs. a
larger body of text.

1.私が言いたいのは、毎日語学の仕事をしているから、全体的に語学力があがるでしょう。

Sentence #1 would make more sense with 「意図は、」or 「私が言いたいのは、」if your sentence
was accompanied by a larger body of text. If you simply have 「意図は、」at the
start of a sentence with no accompanying text the reader will question what
'intention' you are talking about.

※ Also instead of using たぶん, which is more of a spoken word, I would suggest
using おそらく accompanied with でしょう to provide the same sense of doubt you're
expressing with たぶん while being more correct and polite. (As mentioned in
other answers: volitional form)

2.毎日語学の仕事をする意図は、語学力が全体的によくなる可｛か｝能｛のう｝性｛せい｝があるからです。

Sentence #2 makes more sense as a stand alone sentence versus being included
in a larger body of text. In this example 'intention' is moved to the rear of
the first part of the sentence letting the reader understand the context of
your 意図・'intention' more clearly. Kind of like what I mentioned above in
regards to starting the sentence with 意図 except in reverse it makes sense.

Notes:

意図 ー 本当の意味、本当の目的とする所、等

意図's meaning is closely tied into that of 意味.
