Sworn Translator - from Dutch to English

I provide Dutch–English translations which combine accuracy and clarity with cultural nuance. An excellent translation goes beyond words: it requires mastery of both languages, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of context and subject matter.

 

As a UK-qualified Chartered Accountant with 25 years experience at CFO/FD level in private and public entities from start-ups to major public companies in the UK, US, Continental Europe and the MIddle East, I have particular domain expertise in the business, financial and legal arena.  Having worked in multiple jurisdictions and travelled extensively I am also well aware of differing customs, terminology and communication styles between geographies. I can therefore ensure that your contracts, corporate reports (annual, quarterly etc), online resources, correspondence, and regulatory filings are translated precisely and appropriately for their intended audience.

 

As to industry expertise, I have particular experience in:

  • venture capital;

  • private equity;

  • legal services;

  • technology;

  • telecommunications;

  • oil and gas;

  • maritime sector.
