Bio

👋

 

Hi there,

 

I’m Leighton: a UK-native German-to-English and French-to-English language services professional, specialising in marketing and corporate communication.

 

🙏

 

I’m passionate about helping you communicate in flawless, compelling English. That’s why I provide translation, post-editing, revision, proofreading, transcreation, localisation and copywriting services that fit you.

 

 

Put simply: I help you stand out from the crowd. While machine translation and “Global English” may harm your brand and business, carefully crafted native-level language content produced by a language services professional can instead enhance your brand and increase sales.

 

🔑

 

Quality content has never been so important and localisation has become key in accessing local markets. I help you address English-speaking audiences in the right way, so that you can unlock markets and grow your business.

 

🎓

 

As a qualified language professional (MA in Translation Studies) and member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists (CIOL), you can rest assured that your content and brand are in safe hands.

 

📕

 

What’s more, I never stop learning. For more info on my CPD activities, why not check the “Licenses & certifications” section below or head on over to my website.
