Swee W.

I am a business and language services consultant specialising in business development, branding and marketing. My clients include MNCs, SMEs and independent entrepreneurs, spanning across diverse industries from medical, engineering to lifestyle and FMCG retail. One of my forte is EN/CH business and marketing translation. I support my clients in creating branding/marketing collaterals and localising their products/services. I am a former foreign China-specialist political analyst at the Singapore Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I have more than 19 years' experience in translation work (Chinese↔English, Japanese↔English), editing/proof-reading and copywriting. I am also proficient in desktop publishing using the Adobe suite and other equivalent software. I had previously worked in Beijing (4.5 years), Taipei (1 year) and Hong Kong (6 months), hence I am proficient in both simplified and traditional Chinese texts and am also familiar with the cultural nuances in the different Mandarin-speaking societies. Majority of my projects are bound by copyright/NDAs. I have uploaded some non-sensitive excerpts from my past works onto my portfolio below. My qualifications: - Masters in Civil Engineering, National University of Singapore - Postgraduate Diploma in Translation and Interpretation, China Foreign Affairs University
