Responsibilities

  • As the Creative Director, you work in collaboration with the Game Director to own the vision for the player experience. You are in charge of the definition of the fantasy of our game and of the supervision of its execution across disciplines (art, animation, audio, narrative...). You set the emotional tone of the player experience and how it contributes to supporting their high-level motivation.

  • With the Creative Producer and other directors, and in collaboration with the Publisher, you participate in the strategic development of the franchise beyond our current game (sequels, spin-offs, transmedia, etc.).

  • As a director, you handle the parts of the collaboration with the publisher (deliverables, milestones, alignment…) relevant to your area of ownership.

Experience & Qualifications

  • You have shipped multiple titles in a Creative Director role preferably, or in another directorial role.

  • You are a world class inspiring leader. You have high energy and it transfers to people around you. You make people dream and know how to build trust to guide them and make them achieve more than they would have ever imagined.

  • You are a people leader, you inspire and navigate interpersonal relationships with tact and drive. You look for empowering people and help them to develop a growth mindset. You are constantly showing the way, being a problem solver and helping to guide and shepherd other disciplines along the way.

  • You are an excellent communicator, verbally and in writing. You can stand in front of a crowd and adapt to the situation: you can create excitement and alignment or deliver difficult news while still nurturing a safe place for the team.

  • You don’t shy away from difficult situations, you are the embodiment of radical candor: you challenge directly but you personally care. You build an inclusive place for people with diverse backgrounds while striving for individual growth and collective performances.

  • You are comfortable thinking strategically while also being pragmatic about day to day executions. You can easily shift your mind between big picture topics and driving decisions or removing blockers for the team on the fly.

  • You have an innovative spirit and can think outside of the box. You understand we have to keep a healthy balance between creativity, technological innovation and business requirements. You are comfortable working in a context filled with uncertainty while always thinking in terms of risks and performance.

  • You are adaptable and will handle whatever the project throws at your plans. You understand the stress that change can bring on people but you gracefully drive everyone calmly through it while being unphased yourself.
