We have just started building our dream game and are looking for a Lead Game Designer. We have a genuine ambition to make something that is more than a game. In the GOALS universe games exist both on and off screen, blending football, fashion, esports and digital assets.
As the Lead Game Designer, you will be responsible for creating the design platform and help the development team to understand and align on goals and ideas. You will manage the detailed design work by mapping out the different elements of designing the game, converting concepts to play. You will lead the game and player design involving leagues, teams, abilities, physics, mechanics, cameras and more. To make it happen, you will collaborate with your team of fellow designers, coders, artists and animators.
To succeed in this role, we think you have both played and released many different games in various genres, game modes and on different platforms. To make this game great, you need to have a solid understanding of games and appreciate insight from the community in order to pinpoint differences, similarities and what is missing between games and platforms. We see it as vital for you to decide when an idea is working or not, even if you have invested a lot of time and effort in it. We believe that you are driven by researching and refining ideas into robust and buildable systems. It is therefore important that you combine your and your team's ideas and see them through from prototype to gameplay. It is all about translating the desired player feeling into systems and producing it.
As a person, you pay attention to all elements of a game and that they should work seamlessly together and make sense for the player. We believe that sharing the same vision with the development team and giving room for creativity and fun is crucial for the team to produce a high quality game. This is why we think you need to be a savvy communicator and a great team player for welcoming and choosing the best ideas.
We think that you are a true leader with strong interpersonal skills. You are committed to giving your team members the tools to succeed and prosper. An essential component is creating a diverse and inclusive environment.
Focus Areas
• Lead the team of game designers to build an exceptional game experience
• Create and maintain a set of guidelines and creative vision
• Define assets, gameplay mechanics and tooling to support game design at scale
• Collaborate closely with peers (producers, tech/art director, etc)
• Coach, mentor and develop direct reports
• Ensure a fair, inclusive, and positive team culture
Qualifications
• Previous experience from developing and delivering a AAA multiplayer PC/console game
• Ability to communicate clearly and effectively with stakeholders
• Solid background as level designer
• Outstanding leadership and team management skills
About the Employment
The position is permanent, starting with 6 months of probationary employment. You can work from our Stockholm office, fully remote or hybrid. It is important that you are able to communicate unhindered in verbal/written English and that you can work in a timezone close to Stockholm (GMT 0-3 hours).

About the Studio
GOALS is a small start-up with big dreams!
Humble in the way we work; embracing that skilled and passionate people are the heart and core of our studio. Not humble in our objective; creating the best football game in the world.
Recognizing there wasn't a fast paced, competitive, multiplayer focused football game on the market we decided to change that. Let's bring football into esports for real! Bridging the gap between the real world and the digital, we're building something that is more than a game.
Our community is the most important voice, and we want to give every colleague and gamer a feeling of ownership.
