Dave initially joined Roevin’s publications division on a one week contract in 1995. He returned in 1996 for a three month contract converting Volvo workshop manuals into an electronic format. Twelve years later, with a substantial amount of experience and knowledge in multilanguage publishing, Dave is still working with the company!

“It doesn’t seem five minutes since I started; DTP enables me to work on a broad range of projects in a variety of software packages,making my time at Roevin pass with ease. I have built up a strong skills base covering a lot of software to cope with any job. I find I can adapt to new software very well.”

Since joining the Translation Division over 7 years ago, Dave has become an integral member of the team with expert knowledge of a whole range of DTP packages and translation tools such as TRADOS and SDLX. His excellent eye for detail is vital in ensuring that translations are correctly reproduced within clients’ artwork. A former Computer Studies student, Dave was inspired by working with foreign languages, and decided to study French in his own time, gaining an “A” grade in his GCSE last summer.

Dave got married on Easter Sunday and the whole team wish him and his wife Karen a long and happy future together.
