After several years working in export sales
administration, Gillian decided to put her degree in languages
to more active use and entered the world of translation in
1981. Since those early days, the emphasis has gradually shifted
from freelance work to translation management. At Zebra, Gillian
has overall responsibility for the quality of translation output, but still keeps her skills honed by some hands-on
translation work as well.
As an experienced linguist, Gillian has
dealt with material in the widest possible range of subject
areas and languages, and knows how important it is to collaborate
closely with clients and draw their attention to potential
linguistic challenges and opportunities.
Gillian is a respected member of the UK
translation community. A founder member of ITI (Institute
of Translation and Interpreting), she also contributed to
its work by spending two years on its Council.

After several years working within the legal
profession, Jill decided on a change and joined as Sales Manager
to one of the world's largest translation agencies. Her portfolio
of accounts included Jaguar Cars, Intel, Siemens, Napp Laboratories
and Cummins Engines.
After three years, Jill joined a large multinational
corporation whose work focused on the IT, electronics and
telecommunications fields. This broadened her knowledge and
she now intends to put all her experience into making Zebra
a service provider that other companies can trust.
Having worked closely with some of the biggest
names in the business, Jill understands that each client is
unique and has individual needs and requirements, and she
and her partners intend to tailor their service to match and
even exceed client expectations!

After working in several European countries,
Lisa became involved in the translation industry in 1990.
Her experience on the front line of the business means
that there isn't too much that she hasn't encountered when
it comes to project management and the translation world in
general.
Lisa's ability to liaise with clients and
suppliers alike ensures that projects run smoothly and that
necessary deadlines are adhered to. Project Management is
at the sharp end of the industry and multi-tasking is one
of Lisa's essential skills.
There are also a few "must-haves" in Project
Management that Lisa has acquired over the years, including
tact, diplomacy, understanding, patience and a little crystal-ball
reading for good measure!
