Who are we?

Here at Atlas we love getting to know more about our translators and our clients and we thought you might like to know more about us and who are we!

Atlas is a great place to work and we are all very different – in fact our differences are what make our team so unique – we all have interests in different things which we feel really benefits our relationships with our suppliers and clients

Just for fun, see if you can work out which fact belongs to which member of staff!

“I swam competitively for 7 years”

“Between the ages of 3 and 12 I was spoken to in 4 languages at school: Creole, French, English and Hindi”

“I once auditioned to be a TV presenter”

“My Idol is Mary Berry”

“I used to sell anti-wrinkle cream”

“I took up running after being ill to get fit and carried on until I did a marathon”

“I once high fived Kris Akabussi”
