Summary

Working in an international environment has kept me moving forward. Thanks to my perfect command of English and German, I have gained experience in several working areas, including administration, finance and translation.
As a self-employed translator, I learned how to communicate and find clients at a high level. I was responsible for the day-to-day activities, from approaching clients, dealing with rates, to carrying out the translation and delivering the finished product.

Working in an international company where I worked in the SAP system, on the other hand, taught me how to process invoices and book these to the correct account.
