Sound Engineer

Based in Seven Dials tucked between Soho and Covent Garden, Liquid Violet is a stone’s throw away from London’s top TV, film and theatre talent. The studio space offers a creative, relaxed environment and respite from the city, featuring an interior awash with natural light. Our talent lies in a good eye for collaboration and a vision committed to refining the art of voice production and performance, drawing on our experience and expertise to deliver exceptional results. As well as an appreciation for great voice work, we have a unique focus on overcoming the creative and technical challenges that emerge when seemingly straightforward projects meet the real world. We pride ourselves in finding the best solution to a given situation. And we do that by remaining open in our production methods and continually learning to adapt what we know to what we do.

Our state-of-the-art studios are used to service the video games and media & entertainment markets.

We have a new & exciting opportunity for a Sound Engineer to join the Liquid Violet team. The successful applicant will work to deliver optimum technical efficiency in the recording of voice talent, enabling the company to deliver a competitive, agile and flexible response to the developing needs of our clients.

We are looking for an energetic and pro-active individual who can apply informed initiative when troubleshooting technical issues. The role will be based in the studio, but we have also developed remote recording workflows which we expect to continue in some capacity. The engineer will also assist in post-production, supporting freelance engineers and the preparation of key assets.

You will work across all service lines of the production business, supporting the technical preparation of projects, recording dialogue and VO to the highest technical standards, and delivering projects within given timeframes and deadlines. Excellent communication is essential when dealing with the internal team, the wider Keywords group, and with clients such as Blizzard, Nintendo, Riot and Netflix.

Whilst recording and studio handling will be your primary focus, additional experience in dialogue editing, technical QC, and asset management would be a great advantage.
