Job Details

You thrive on building strong partnerships with teams and team members, leading meaningful HR projects, and working hands-on with colleagues. Supporting both people and business goals comes naturally, as you balance day-to-day tasks with long-term projects.

You're looking for a role where you can nurture and grow talent - and play a key part in shaping how people are supported, developed, and empowered across the studio. Then check this out!

We are unconventional creators of action games for PC and consoles - extremely fun to work with and definitely not for the faint-hearted.

For over a decade, we pioneered the local game dev scene, driven by the ambition to become the regional game dev leader.

On that quest, we pave our way with exciting games developed in Unreal Engine. Scars Above, our latest title, is a challenging and immersive 3rd-person Sci-Fi shooter set in a mysterious alien world to explore. We are also developing two new, unannounced games based on famous and beloved IPs, which franchises' fans will eagerly anticipate! While we can't reveal too much just yet, we can promise these titles will push the boundaries of regional game development and generate some serious hype.

We are looking for a motivated and skilled professional to join our team on a fixed-term position until January 2027, as a replacement for a colleague who will be on maternity leave. 

We are looking for someone like you to join us in Belgrade or Novi Sad, with a flexible hybrid setup - 3 days from the studio, 2 optionally remote. If everything said above ticks all your boxes so far, read on! We might be a match made in heaven!

You will also lead the Learning & Development area, using modern tools and methods to drive employee growth, while managing complex HR projects, supporting organisational development, and mentoring the team.


What do we expect from our ideal candidate?

  • 5+ years of experience in Senior HR management roles and partner roles, plus HR Leadership roles

  • Working experience preferable in IT or in a company with well developed HR processes

  • A Bachelor’s degree, preferably in Organizational Sciences, Psychology, or a related field.

  • Previous experience/role and expert understanding of HR partnering and providing people related support to employees and managers

  • Proven ability to partner effectively with stakeholders at all levels of the organisation

  • Experience leading cross-functional HR projects/processes from ideation to implementation, including project planning, stakeholder management, and monitoring progress against objectives

  • Good understanding and use of English language

  • Deep understanding of HR processes such as talent management, performance management, employee relations, and organizational development

  • Strong leadership and mentoring skills, with the ability to motivate and develop teams

  • Knowledge of modern L&D tools, methods, and trends in employee development

  • Experience in leading other HR professionals


In return, here is what we can give:

  • A dynamic and extremely upbeat workplace like you have never seen before

  • Competitive industry-standard salaries, because we all know that it matters

  • Flexible working hours: sleep in or start early - we trust you with your time

  • Chance to work with senior professionals and teams from your field of work

  • Premium private medical insurance, as well as other well-being benefits - because we care about your physical and mental health

  • More time to rest: 25 days of vacation, plus a company-wide annual leave in January, plus additional days for significant life events like childbirths, wedding leaves, and bereavement, plus short-term sick leaves

  • Ongoing education and training: Self-improvement is a priority, so conferences, classes, workshops, and courses (external and internal) are all part of the package

  • Community events: we are heavily involved in developing startup, tech, and gaming ecosystems - and will include you in it

  • Awesome team building events, as well as personalized team bonding events tailored to your preferences
