In 2009, Moreira joined the structure of Sporting CP, and was in charge of the club's under-11 side. In 2012, he became Paulo Fonseca's assistant at Paços de Ferreira, later following him to Porto, Braga, Shakhtar Donetsk, and Roma, spanning nine years of service; [1] the association ended when Moreira did not follow Fonseca to Ligue 1 side Lille.

On 22 September 2022, Moreira was named in his first managerial job, at Liga Portugal 2 side, Torreense, replacing Nuno Manta Santos at the 18th-placed team. [3] His debut nine days later was a 3–1 loss at Belenenses in the Taça de Portugal second round. [4]

Moreira's first Liga Portugal 2 game was a 1–0 home win over Estrela da Amadora on 8 October 2022. [5] After a 9th-placed finish, he left on 29 May 2023 as he opted to not renew his contract. [6]
