Sue was recruited to MTT in 1991. Coming from a background of Automation & Engineering, Sue was the ideal person to take up the challenging role of in-house senior technical translator in French and German. She has a real passion for languages and as well as being a translator she's an interpreter, technical proofreader and has also taught German & French to Business clients.
Sue's interest in automotive translation is fuelled by her passion for motorbikes but since having two children Sue has given up her 98 horsepower for pedal power. She also enjoys F1, gaming, cycling and walking her dog Alfie.
Sue was made director in 1993 and bought the company in 2004 when MTT (UK) Ltd was born. MTT is now part of the Marketing + Technologies Group, enabling us to offer even more services to our clients.
Sue's vision was to create the best type of translation agency, one that not only offered technically accurate translations but also offered great customer service and peace of mind to her customers. This has been achieved as MTT can boast that for the tenth year running they have a customer satisfaction rating of 99%. This is due to Sue's dedication and her fabulous team of translators and admin staff backing her up.
Sue's passion for languages doesn't just stop at the office door, she has lectured to students from local schools to Oxford university graduates on the importance of languages in business and how it can improve their future career prospects in the international business market.

Our Team of Translators and Interpreters
Our team of translators and interpreters is our main asset, with their wealth of experience, skills and often unique sense of humour.
