Karolien Lauwens

Karolien, who has a Bachelor’s degree in business translation and interpreting from Thomas More Hogeschool in Mechelen, began her career as a Customer Service & Office Assistant, then became a translator for an international organisation in the well-being sector. She quickly joined a translation agency, where she was responsible for all Dutch translations and revisions in a wide range of fields.

In 2012, Karolien was hired as a Project Manager at IGTV. She and her two colleagues liaise between your company and the translators, as well as ensuring that all your projects run smoothly. So what does Karolien like about her job? The diversity and the adrenaline rush she feels every time she plans and organises a project. Nothing makes her happier than a successfully completed assignment and a happy client. It’s what keeps her going.

In her free time, Karolien enjoys a cycling adventure.
