Is there any kind of job market available in Portugal for a citizen who is fluent in English (bachelor's degree and 15 years work experience) but cannot speak Portuguese?

Johnny put a lot of work into his post. I suggest you read all the above information, which Johnny posted regarding obtaining work.

Tourist guide in Portugal (Guia tur铆stico certificado)

Portugal and India signed an agreement on recruitment of Indian workers

This agreement sets the procedures for the admission of Indian citizens for a professional activity, under a work contract, in Portugal. It will apply to recruitment for any employment activity and whatever the duration of the employment contract, and Indian workers will benefit from all the rights guaranteed by Portuguese law.

Whenever a portuguese employer wishes to hire an Indian worker, he must communicate this intention to the Employment and Professional Training Institute (IEFP), which will transmit it to the Indian authorities. The Indian authorities will carry out a selection process, at the end of which the employment contract will be signed and the visa granted to the recruited worker.
