Nexus Translations—A business built by those who really know the translation business
Nexus Translations was started by two professional translators with more than 30 years of combined experience in the translation business. We have put this time to good use, building up a network of language specialists that enables us to offer a level of expertise that is second to none, matched with quality assurance processes that allow us to deliver services you can trust.
What we do
With offices in Japan and New Zealand, Nexus Translations offers translation between multiple languages, copywriting, and interpreting, leveraging an extensive network of experienced specialists from around the world to offer language services matched to the needs of our customers. Focusing on quality and natural language, we provide documentation that delivers your message the way you intended.
What we don’t do
We’re proud to provide quality translation and copy writing that reads as well in the target language as it does when it leaves your desk. That’s why we don’t work with translators we can’t vouch for, we don’t use machine translation, and we don’t ask translators to work into a language they don’t have native-level competency in. Ever.
Our advantages
01 The right translator
Only translators with the required expertise will work on your content, ensuring that it is not only accurate, but that it reads well.
02 Timely response
We recognize your content is often highly time-sensitive, and we’ll make sure it is treated with the attention it requires.
03 Multilevel quality control
Exhaustive quality-control procedures mean that your content will have the same impact as it does in the original.

The people we work with
Many translation agencies emphasize the huge numbers of translators with whom they are willing or able to work, but Nexus Translations is different.
Together, Nexus’ directors Graham Chave and Marc Ward have over three decades of experience in the translation industry, and have learned what makes a good translator. We cannot in good conscience assign a translator who is not capable of producing the best translation possible, so we hand-pick only those translators whose work is of a proven quality to become part of the Nexus team.

Have significant experience in their field (either translation or interpreting)
