Therefore, I combine the easiest-to-use technology with traditional language interpreting and intercultural communication to provide real-time, culturally-sensitive services for British and Latin American businesses, governments, and changemakers so they can focus on the what while I deal with the how.
You are the expert in your field, I am the expert in mine and, together, we connect worlds.
Real-time translation and intercultural support for British and Latin American businesses, governments, and professionals combined with the easiest-to-use technology to help your meetings and events run smoothly, seamlessly, and within schedule.
That is multilateral communication in action!
“I would highly recommend Maria Cecilia for many different reasons. Always reliable, prompt and honest, she is incredibly passionate about what she does- never failing the Euro London team and constantly delivering high quality and nuanced translations. Finally, she is also an absolute pleasure to work with – very personable and extremely easy to speak to.”
“Cecilia is quite simply one of the most talented people I’ve worked with in any field. She is outstanding at her core job (Spanish/English interpreting) but also brings to bear numerous other skills such as diplomacy, government engagement skills, a knowledge of London that would put professional tour guides to shame – and an attitude which is thoroughly professional, admirably ‘can-do’ and determined to make the best possible experience for clients. I would recommend her without hesitation.”
“There are three main reasons why working with Cecilia is always such a pleasure. Firstly, peace of mind. Secondly, the use of language. Finally, and perhaps an element that I find most important: adaptability. I’d like to recommend her for her professional, warm and very diplomatic attitude.”
“Without doubt, Maria Cecilia is the best interpreter I have been able to work with.
She is highly skilled, very professional and flexible. She has successfully interpreted high authorities including our President and International Trade Minister.”
I love speaking to groups about the power of culturally-sensitive communication, the benefits of adding translators and interpreters to your team, and how to best interact with Latin America and the United Kingdom.

The Savvy Companion™ is what makes Multilateral unique; a combination of intercultural communication skills, outstanding general knowledge, deep understanding of business etiquette and international protocol, superb people skills, and an ad-hoc local host advice that underpins my work as your interpreter.
Verbal expression accounts for about 7% of everything that is communicated when two or more people interact. Language interpreting deals with that 7%, The Savvy Companion™ deals with everything else.
Everything I do is in line with the Multilateral Way, a series of ten core values that guide my work and that of the colleagues I collaborate with:
I purposely do not list any client names or their logos on my website. This is to protect their confidentiality as well as that of the events and projects I assist them with.
Those whose comments about my work are featured above have given their express consent and authorisation for me to do so.
You see, discretion and confidentiality are at the core of everything I do. So, you will not find any names of clients or photos of my work here or in my Instagram feed.
Multilateral is a professional interpreting services company with a strong emphasis in cross-cultural communication and specialised in helping British and Latin American businesses, government officials, and professionals to grow in partnership and collaboration run personally by me.
It is not and has no plans to become an agency. However, as I can only be in one place at any given time and my days are also only 24-hour long, I sometimes rely on my selected network of trusted and highly-qualified colleagues and strategic partners both in Latin America and in Britain to ensure you receive the world-class service you deserve.
Working with me is very simple. It only takes 3 steps:
Consecutive interpreting for Salvadorian writer Jorge Galan in London. Interpreting starts at 00:04:48 when I translate his first answer into English. The podcast was originally posted on the London Review Bookshop website.
Professional, warm, flexible, highly-skilled, collaborative, and discreet are some of the words my clients use to describe me and the services I provide.
Born in Buenos Aires and a Londoner by adoption, I have lived and worked on both sides of the Atlantic, a foot on each side of the language and cultural divide.
The more I do my job (seventeen years and going!), the more I believe that words do connect worlds.
