    • Work closely with the producers in planning and maintaining the content production plan.
    • Participate in discussions with stakeholders to ensure the content pipelines support the game and company vision and financial goals.

Here at Wooga, the desire to learn and the willingness to solve problems are more important to us than your experience on paper. We encourage you to apply even if you do not think that you tick all the boxes - thinking outside of such boxes and embracing the diversity of mindsets and backgrounds is what we believe makes our teams thrive.
