My name is Robert Pruszczak.
I am a native Polish translator specializing in business, economic, trading, finance, retail, consumer electronics, technical and marketing translation as well as software and website localization. I have worked on various translation projects in the areas of economics, IT, marketing, machinery, software, medical devices, gaming, and law as a freelance translator for over 14 years and as a full-time professional translator and proofreader for more than 8 years.
In addition, I have been translating subtitles for diverse audio-visual content since 2011. I am happy to combine a passion for economics, marketing and localization with a professional approach to quality and deadlines.
I am more than eager to establish cooperation with agencies and outsources in matters of my expertise
In each and every one of my projects I aim at providing my clients with transparent terms and conditions of cooperation that reflect SMART methodology.
Every single one of my projects is market-specific and tailor-made to a target audience at all times.
With a quick, transparent and clear quotation of a project, you know exactly how much it will cost you.
If you trust me with a project, you can be certain I will deliver it on time. I always cut my coat according to my cloth.
I am laser-focused on providing my clients with high quality service to their satisfaction.
Working under tight deadlines is no stranger to me, hence I strive to offer my clients the best possible time frame for a project.
