Bio

Freelance translator with over 20 years of experience specialising in corporate communications texts. I translate into English, from Spanish and French.

I have been a full member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists since 2008.
e-mail: carlosalvarez@blueyonder.co.uk

Experience
I have been freelancing continuously since 2006, translating texts on the organisation, activity and financial position, amongst other matters, of listed companies.
From November 1996 to June 2004 I worked in-house at the Financial Times in London, translating articles from the Spanish and French financial press, Expansión and Les Echos being the main titles. The work also involved selecting articles for translation, and editing the work of other translators.
