• Coordinate multilingual translation, dubbing and subtitling workflows, ensuring projects are delivered on time, within budget and to VSI's quality standards.

• Monitor project finances closely, including budgets, supplier costs, client invoicing and change orders, to achieve agreed profitability targets.

• Support Sales and Account Management during the quoting stage by providing operational input, timelines, and cost information as needed.

• Build a strong understanding of VSI's services so you can advise clients effectively and identify relevant cross‑selling opportunities for the Sales team.

• Maintain clear, proactive communication with clients, suppliers, and internal teams, including arranging production meetings or calls for complex projects.

• Understand each client's requirements, provide practical advice and use sound judgement to resolve issues, escalating when appropriate.

• Prepare accurate project updates and reports for Account Managers and the Head of Department as required.

• Maintain complete and accurate project data in internal systems, including the timely processing of supplier and client invoices.

• Identify opportunities to improve project delivery, account performance and operational processes.

• Complete project administration and other operational tasks as required.

What we are looking for

• Brazilian Portuguese at CEFR C2 level, or equivalent proficiency, with an excellent command of grammar, idiom and cultural nuance.

• Previous project management experience in localisation, media or a comparable fast‑paced production environment.

• A good understanding of dubbing workflows.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the confidence to work effectively with clients, suppliers and colleagues.

• A collaborative approach and the ability to coordinate multimedia requirements across production teams while maintaining consistency.

• Excellent organisation and prioritisation skills, with the ability to manage multiple deadlines calmly and accurately.

• A proactive, solutions‑focused mindset and sound problem‑solving skills.

• Flexibility and adaptability when requirements or priorities change at short notice.

• Excellent attention to detail and a consistent commitment to client service.

• Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office.

• Experience with OOONA or a similar project management platform would be an advantage.

• Knowledge of subtitling specifications and tools would also be an advantage.
