Work with Richard Ferguson!

Freelance Translator | EN Native | 15+ Years of Experience | Specialist in Law, Business and Marketing & Government

Since 2008, I’ve worked as a freelance translator after completing my MA in Translation & Interpreting in the UK. I translate from Spanish, French, and Catalan into English and have delivered high-quality translations for clients across Europe, including international organisations, city councils, EU institutions, fashion brands, and engineering firms.

Over the years, I’ve specialised in: Legal/Contracts – judicial texts, legal proceedings, statutes, and contracts
Digital Marketing/Business – e-commerce, fashion, branding, CRM (Salesforce)
Politics/Government – EU texts, Member State interventions, city planning
Travel & Tourism – press releases, regional tourism, magazine content
Lifestyle/Media – magazines, internal comms, and marketing collateral

I’m also experienced in MTPE, copywriting, and proofreading. My work is informed by strong research skills, deadline discipline, and a commitment to continual learning—whether through specialised CPD courses or developing my freelance business.

Notable projects include:
• Translating press content for the Paris 2024 Olympics
• Legal texts for international NGOs
• Urban planning docs for Catalan councils
• Marketing copy for brands like Havaianas
• Technical materials for CAF and Salesforce

I bridge sectors with precision and clarity—always adapting to the voice and intent of the client.
