I specialise in technical and scientifical translations Fr/Sp>GB, and also from Fr/GB>Sp.
I have over 14 years experience as a translator and over 30 as a mechanical engineer.
Most of the jobs I do are for translation agencies, although, I occasionally work alongside lecturers and also as part of a team of translators in order to draft and implement competitive work strategies.
I regularly carry out translations for bodies such as: The British Ministry of defence, the Spanish Army, British gas, Transco, Siemens and all major car manufacturers. |
