Japanese to English Translation

Translation
I specialise in technical translations, although I am very happy to consider non-technical assignments. I am particularly interested in patents, having received specialist training in Patent translation from 1993 to 1995 while working as the in-house Japanese-English translator with RWS Translations, the largest patent translation specialist in the world.

As a native English speaker, I generally only translate from Japanese into English, although I will take on small assignments requiring translation from English into Japanese.

For larger English to Japanese projects I may be able to arrange translation by a qualified English to Japanese translator.

I have a degree in Engineering from Cambridge University, specialising in electronics, and also have considerable experience in managerial, operational and strategic roles with blue-chip manufacturing organisations in Japan. Read more about my background.

Examples of the type of translation which I provide include:
  • Patents for filing, litigation or information
  • Technical research papers
  • Presentations
  • Instruction manuals

Please contact me if your requirement is not listed here - I will be happy to consider your request, and if I cannot provide a translation myself, I may be able to introduce you to another suitable translator.
