Nick Bennett, Japanese-English Translator (JLPT Level 1)

Welcome to the home page of Nick Bennett, a professional Trados-enabled Japanese-English translator with more than 19 years experience of software localization, financial/business translations and verbatim translations.

Nick graduated from the School of Oriental & African Studies, London University, with a double first in Japanese and Economics. He also obtained a Japanese Monbusho scholarship that allowed him to spend a year at Hiroshima University, where he studied macroeconomic theory and Japanese literature.

After graduating from SOAS, Nick built a rich and varied career as a translator at the BBC, an operations manager for a Japanese trading company, an analyst for a British securities company in Tokyo, and a financial translator for a Japanese news service.

Now based in Dublin, Nick specializes in high-volume Trados-based translations that demand speed, accuracy and consistency at competitive rates. His translations are informed by his extensive working experience with Japanese, an unstinting commitment to translation quality and punctuality, and a kaizen-inspired readiness to upskill and embrace new technologies.

At his client's request, he has also purchased a Translation Workspace (TWS) subscription and assembled a team of hand-picked J-E translators to deliver additional quality-assured capacity when required.

Nick also manages two self-designed sports arbitrage websites that generate additional advertising and affiliate income (arbcruncher.com and backlaybettingcalculator.com). This sideline has provided Nick with valuable hands-on experience of web design, SEO, online marketing, affiliate marketing and digital advertising.

Nick welcomes inquiries via , Twitter or Facebook and looks forward to discussing your translation needs.
