About the Role

- Work with post-production teams to track asset delivery timelines and ensure all required materials are delivered to spec and on schedule.
What You Bring

- Working knowledge of Brazilian labor regulations, production tax incentives, and local industry compliance requirements.
- Experience coordinating across legal, finance, business affairs, and creative departments within a large content organization.
- Fluency in Portuguese is expected given the local production context; English proficiency is required for internal studio communication.
