We are looking for a skilled and detail-oriented Subtitler to join our media production team. As a Subtitler, you will be responsible for creating accurate, readable, and well-timed subtitles for a variety of video and audio content, including films, television shows, documentaries, online videos, and corporate media. Your work will help make content accessible to a wider audience, including those who are deaf or hard of hearing, and those who speak different languages.
The ideal candidate will have excellent language skills, a strong understanding of grammar and punctuation, and the ability to work with subtitling software. You should be comfortable working independently and meeting tight deadlines. A background in linguistics, translation, or media production is a plus, but not required.

You will work closely with editors, translators, and project managers to ensure the final product is of the highest quality.
This role requires a high level of attention to detail, strong time management skills, and the ability to adapt to different content types and styles. Whether you are working on a fast-paced action film or a corporate training video, your subtitles will play a crucial role in enhancing the viewer's experience.
If you are passionate about language, media, and accessibility, and you enjoy working in a dynamic and creative environment, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.
