Autobiography

I have a degree in Linguistics. Since graduating in 2001 I have acquired some administrative experience and developed my English language skills in several fields I dwell upon in my CV.

I started my career at the Small Business Support Agency at Chamber of Commerce and Industry as an office-manager, further being promoted to the position of the project manager. I regard it as my achievement that a strong team was formed.

Later I took up an opportunity to work as an interpreter and further on a marketing manager. My responsibilities included various administrative duties, business correspondence and negotiating (in English).

As for my translator's activities, I worked as an Interpreter/Content-Operator in Russian-American company (Edu-Data).

My duties in the company included interpreting, translating (education, IT), arranging of sound recording sessions, assistance to marketing manager.

While working at Ectaco, Inc. ( www.ectaco.com ) I managed correspondence for sales department and worked with linguistic content (dictionaries, phrasebooks), contacted native speakers and arranged the schedule within current projects.

 

I have worked for Benevox GmbH translations agency for 2 years. My position of a Project Manager involved administrative activities and language practice. I handled large-scale projects on machine engineering, marine electronics and automotive industry.

I currently work for Business Travel Group as a Product manager. I'm in charge of creation of new incentive programs.
