Christiane Barbon,
Translator

Based in France, I work with countries in the European Union and the Americas.

Experienced translator

With a double degree in specialized multilingual translation and legal translation, I've been working as a freelance translator since 2011. I translate exclusively from English and Spanish into French, and specialize in external/internal corporate communications, particularly commercial, as well as in the legal field.

Before becoming a translator, I worked with these three languages for over twenty years, in companies of all sizes and in a variety of sectors, including some fifteen years for an American multinational in the field of in vitro diagnostics, in European positions, mainly marketing, in France and abroad.

From these experiences, I have acquired a fairly detailed knowledge of companies' needs, processes and challenges.

 

I am a member of the SFT, France’s independent professional membership association for practising translators.

In addition to their initial training, translators are bound by their code of ethics to maintain and develop their knowledge and skills through ongoing training.

 

Ms. BARBON's rigor and skill ensure that customer instructions are respected, that deadlines are met, and that editorial and translation work is scrupulous and meticulous. Thanks to her great capacity for analysis, her research methods and her concern for accuracy, enabling her to justify her own translation choices, she has consistently ensured that her translations are faithful, accurate and of a quality that is fully appreciated.
