Quality
We recruit linguists in line with ISO 9001 quality criteria and demand an unwavering commitment to industry developments as standard, and you can be confident that our dedicated, experienced Account Managers will handle the entire assignment so you can focus firmly on your responsibilities.
Interpersonal intelligence
Interpreters represent your business so carrying your brand values effectively is a must. We work exclusively with reliable linguists who can demonstrate cultural sensitivity, emotional awareness, and a sound moral compass to immediately establish effective audience rapport.
Experience
Our interpreters are leaders in their field. Nothing less than 5 years’ experience will do, creating trustworthy interpreting services which keep our clients coming back to us time and time again.
Equipment
We are experts in providing full service solutions and alongside interpreters we can supply booths, headphones, microphones, and on-site technical support for a smooth, seamless interpreting assignment.
Full range of Services
As well as quality interpreting services, we also offer a full range of translation services, including transcreation, website translation and technical translation.
Ad-hoc/liaison
The interpreting is carried out in small, informal situations such as solicitors’ appointments or group discussions. The interpreter will pause at regular intervals to interpret both into and out of the participants’ target languages. (The term is not to be confused with its use in medical circles, where it refers to untrained individuals such as family or friends who interpret to bridge a communicative gap between the patient and staff).
Consecutive
The interpreting occurs after sentences or short bursts of speech, and is commonly used in more formal situations such as court proceedings, small conferences, factory visits, and business meetings.
Simultaneous
The source voice is interpreted with a 2-3 second delay, requiring soundproof booths, microphones, and several specifically-qualified linguists to simultaneously listen, interpret, and relay the message to delegates’ headsets. It is often used for large multinational meetings, summits, and conferences.
Telephone
Not all interpreting requirements can be foreseen and some do not need an interpreter on-site. Our on-demand telephone interpreting services are available 24-7 to connect you to a linguist within minutes, ideal for example when ordering from overseas suppliers or negotiating with clients via conference call.
Chuchotage/whispered interpreting
The interpreter sits amongst delegates and relays the interpretation by whisper, delivering a much quicker service than consecutive interpreting. This variation is best suited to smaller audiences where a handful of attendees do not understand the source language.
