Mr José Luis Villanueva Senchuk MITI

Seasoned Spanish (Spain/LATAM/International) – English (US/UK) linguistic mediator with over 26 years of experience.

My role as a Senior Interpreter has honed my expertise in delivering precise conference interpreting and translation services across a breadth of industries and sectors. I facilitate international communication, ensuring every nuance is captured and conveyed with cultural sensitivity and analytical insight. My multicultural approach to interpretation and interpersonal and emotional intelligence comes, in part, from having lived in Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

With a rich background as a Cultural Mediator, I bring a wealth of experience to high-stakes environments where clarity and accuracy are paramount. My linguistic agility in English and Spanish enables me to support diverse audiences, contributing to successful dialogues in a variety of settings, from medical conferences or military exercises to tourism investment gatherings or summit-type official meetings.

CV and Event Log available upon request.

I am also a Fellow and Chartered Linguist with the Chartered Institute of Linguists (CIOL).

My areas of specialisation include thematic spheres related to Business Negotiations, Medicine, Education, Pharma, Environment, Law Enforcement, Military & Defence, AVISEC, Health, Aviation & Airports, Feminism, Tourism Investment and Real Estate, O&G, Energy, Public Policy and International Organizations (from high level meetings and summit-type events to field work, some pro bono).
