  • You represent our studio and its titles with grace and respect, building relationships both internally and with our external partners, including at industry events where applicable

Knowledge, Skills & Experience

  • Detailed experience of a full game development lifecycle (pre-production through to release) on multiple AAA titles in a senior production capacity.
  • Excellent ability to plan, influence and ensure delivery of the work across an entire project in production.
  • Experience of different Project Management software (e.g. Jira, Hansoft, Trello)
  • Demonstrated ability to build schedules and roadmaps with respect for the complexity of the development cycle, player needs and the requirement for reporting and visibility across the studio.
  • Ability to work empathetically, collaboratively and autonomously, providing excellent transparency across the studio.
