Work with Kate Major

I have lived and worked in Spain for a total of 17 years, in Valencia, Andalusia and Galicia. I feel fortunate that the pleasure I get from reading, writing and culture has taken me into a career I love. Expressing people’s voices and helping them get heard is my vocation.

This dedication means that a fair portion of my spare time is spent studying my craft. In 2015, I was awarded the Institute of Linguist’s Diploma in Translation, the UK’s “gold standard” for professional translators, and in 2017 I gained a Master’s in Audiovisual Translation. I attend conferences in my profession and fields as often as possible to hone my skills and catch up with colleagues.

As much as my business is my pleasure, I do have a life away from my computer screens. I am also a (mediocre) pianist, (slow) swimmer and (armchair) debater. Oh, and (flustered) mother of two.

Clients who trust in me

What my clients say:

Kate’s work is highly professional and we are impressed by her ability to produce clear and accurate translations on a wide range of specialist subjects (social protection, trade unions, gender, etc.) as well as thorough edits, often under challenging time constraints. We have been impressed by Kate’s productivity, commitment to quality and customer orientation, and have no hesitation in recommending her services.

Translation, editing and reporting (TER) unit – ITC-ILO

A translator must be able to detect potential cultural differences that affect the interpretation of the text […] Kate shows a sensitivity to the arts that makes us feel comfortable when communicating with her and allows us to have confidence in her translation methods. We liked the fact that she consulted us on certain points that she wanted to clarify during the project, showing an interest in offering the best possible work. Professionalism, speed, good results and very friendly and pleasant customer relations.

A note of appreciation for the outstanding translation service provided by Kate Major. It is clear that Kate is not just a mere translator, but a multiskilled professional who does the necessary research to deliver accurate meaning and tone in her translations. She is a seasoned professional. She always respects schedules and deadlines. We’d recommend Kate to anyone who needs a translation from Spanish to English.
