I have many years of experience in editorial and web production.
I translate between English, Maltese and Italian. To a lesser extent, I can also handle French, German and basic phrases in Arabic.
I’ve lived in Malta, London and Berlin, and I’m now based in Brussels. In London, I worked in editorial roles with Vogue, The Modern Review, and for five years I was the editor of GSpot Magazine. I also wrote for several publications, including The Face, Dazed & Confused and The Guardian.
I’m available for freelance editorial or web-development work. I have experience in editing academic work, final papers, proposals, etc. I can do light design work, as well as audio and video editing. Contact me on [email protected].
More recently, my work been published in Scintillas 1 (Praspar Press 2022) and The London Magazine. You can also read some of my writing in English at joegattnet.substack.com and joegatt.net, and in Maltese at Aphroconfuso.
Later, while still in London, I developed websites with the BBC, the BBC World Service, Shazam, and the British Council.
I am co-founder and co-editor of the Maltese-language literary journal Aphroconfuso, launched on 1 May 2023. Besides the work I do on the editorial side, I also built the website and back-end to support it, using Eleventy and Strapy
