We have a large number of qualified technical interpreters operating in various locations around the UK and overseas able to help with business meetings and other verbal communications between speakers of different languages including British Sign Language (BSL) for the hard of hearing.
Before employing a technical interpreter, we will always discuss with you which mode of interpreting you require – your choice of interpreting style will depend on the format of your meeting.

Business interpreting at smaller or less formal company meetings, factory visits, exhibitions, product launches, government meetings and accompanying delegations etc. will mainly involve either consecutive or whispered interpreting.
We can also provide technical interpreters or teams of technical interpreters for larger events where the interpreter(s) will operate according to a method known as simultaneous interpreting.
We are able to provide equipment hire for such events meaning you only have to deal with a single point of contact for all of your interpretation and equipment requirements.
We can also provide telephone interpreting on demand where one or more speakers who are not in the same room as the interpreter can communicate with him or her through a telephone line.
The levels of qualification required vary according to the type of interpreting assignment and we apply strict criteria when matching interpreters to the requirements of the client and the circumstances of the assignment. All our conference and business interpreters must have active memberships of at least one professional body such as ITI, ATC, IOL, NRPSI or DPSI as a minimum requirement. In addition we also look for relevant experience and background knowledge.

Working in a niche medical market and starting to export across Europe we had to ensure that our translated materials would be clear, concise and reflective of the medical terminology. From initial inquiry to a finished product took only 10 days and we were very impressed with the professionalism, assurances and the speedy turnaround of Gemma and her team. Thank you!

CDS Group design and manufacture specialist industrial ceramic drying systems for a growing international market. CDS contacted Technical Translations when they needed multi-lingual literature for an international trade show. At that stage the brochures hadn’t been designed or the copy written so the process started with a technical copywriter and our in-house designer producing the English version before we then got to work on translations into various languages including Arabic and Chinese.
Nicky Dunne of CDS said “We operate in a very niche market and to produce our multi-lingual marketing materials we need much more than just a translation company – we need a team of people who understand our industry and also the nuances of how to get our message across to an international audience. We were also up against a tough deadline so we also needed a really fast turnaround.
The service we got from Ben and the team was great, right down to personally delivering the printed brochures just in time to be shipped out to Germany for our trade show. I’m really glad to be working with the team at Technical Translations.”
