The language of the public sector is a minefield of abbreviations, acronyms, discipline-specific terminology and consulting buzzwords. Multiple stakeholder viewpoints, cultural melding and geography all play a part in determining the most suitable terminology for your political message. Absolute Translations’ goal is to help local councils and national government organisations bridge the gap between legislation, social change, and the people these entities affect. Some of the organisations we have worked for include The Crown Estate, Citizens Advice Bureau, Birmingham City Council, Manchester City Council, Newcastle City Council, Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea, Greater London Authority, Cabinet Office, Audit Commission, MOD, Department for International Development, The Labour Party and The International Trade Centre. From sustainability to budgeting, our government translation services are always targeted at your audience, both legislatively and culturally.

Our government sector translations are conducted by experts, whose mission is to impart your vision precisely. We aid auditors, civil servants, watchdogs and ministerial offices in finding the right words to clearly convey intent across demographic boundaries. Our translations are quick, powerful and reliable. We never use machines and every translator working for us has a proven track record developed over a minimum of five years’ working at the highest levels from contracts and tenders to health and safety, financial and defence reports. Our services have been used by hundreds of local government organisations and national government bodies, to decode departmental communications and inter-disciplinary documents in every format.
We help you cut through the jargon to the heart of the matter, engage your clients and deliver on your promises. Our specialist translators are perfectly placed to help your constituents, legislative partners and departmental stakeholders understand the implications of everything you say. We employ PR experts, analysts, commentators and sociologists to help you understand the impact of your words on the communities you serve. Also, our professional interpreting service allows you to communicate effectively with multilingual audiences.
Our specialist translators are here to facilitate change leadership, project management, digital development and commercial awareness as government departments rise to the challenges of the post-downturn 21st century. We do this by bringing more than simple translation expertise to the table. Your Absolute translation team becomes an indispensable adjunct to your departmental operation, bringing unity of voice to even the most fragmented constituency or service area. Growth and reform are never easy – but they’re a step closer when everyone is reading from the same page.
