The role

We are looking for a Production Script Coordinator to join our in-house production team and manage the script creation process end-to-end. Acting as both a project coordinator and language specialist, you will work with suppliers, Dubbing Producers and internal teams to ensure scripts and production materials are accurate, technically compliant and ready for recording and delivery.

You will use your understanding of dubbing and language to make informed creative decisions, identify potential issues early and keep projects moving to schedule, budget and client requirements.

What you will do
  • Take ownership of the end-to-end script creation process, including supplier communication, scheduling, material movement and final delivery.

  • Source new talent where required, confirm supplier availability, negotiate rates and secure the right resource for each project.

  • Create and maintain supplier schedules, monitor turnaround times, and elevate any risks to deadlines, costs, or the client brief.

  • Provide linguistic guidance and make considered creative decisions in each project's best interests.

  • Review dubbing adaptations and audio description scripts before recording to ensure they meet client specifications and quality standards.

  • Revise adaptations and, where required, create full in-house dubbing script adaptations.

  • Coordinate relevant legal documentation, raise purchase orders and support the accurate processing of supplier invoices.

  • Lead the testing and implementation of VSI's proprietary scripting tools, sharing feedback and supporting effective adoption.

  • Material review and quality control

  • Review incoming media and production materials, identifying languages, musical segments and other factors that may affect quoting or recording.

  • Complete quality control checks on final materials before client delivery.

  • Update final scripts to reflect dialogue changes made during recording when as-recorded materials are required.

  • Maintain close communication with Dubbing Producers, ensuring relevant information, risks and creative considerations are shared promptly.

Material preparation

  • Complete word and character counts for scripts.

  • Convert scripts and production materials into the required formats and ensure they meet technical and formatting specifications.

  • Support script insertion into VoiceQ when required.

  • Create edit decision lists for trailer edits and conforms.

What we are looking for
  • Native or high-level English proficiency, with strong written accuracy and linguistic judgement.

  • A good technical and creative understanding of production processes and tools.

  • Strong organisation, planning and time management skills.

  • The ability to manage several priorities, work accurately under pressure and meet tight deadlines.

  • Confidence working independently as well as collaboratively in a fast-paced production environment.

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

  • Strong attention to detail, accuracy and problem-solving skills.

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office.

  • Knowledge of entertainment media, additional languages or a linguistic or creative background would be an advantage.

What we offer
  • Private medical insurance.
