The role is actively involved in work spanning across our portfolio and development organization, working closely with HR to build managerial and developer excellence, with Talent Acquisition to support a successful recruitment process and as an operative wing-person to the COO.
You are passionate about leadership and can be found nerding out about the topic with other people dedicated to growing and learning. You have developed a sound judgment when it comes to organizational structure and ways of working. You are not afraid to take the hard conversations, you maintain cool under pressure and can set the boundaries necessary to support yourself and others. You lead with intent and by example, and get a kick out of helping others be successful.
What you'll do
You have proven leadership experience with a track record of leading successful teams in the gaming industry. You have a strong understanding and interest for goal setting and team work. You have outstanding communication skills, both written and verbal, and are able inspire and lead teams effectively. You are a good listener, and seek information on how to challenge your own and others' biases and preconceptions in order to become better game makers. You have operational and organizational acumen through which you enable positive change and improvement for our teams and subsequently the players.
In short, the Operations Manager will:
Recruit, manage and develop game makers that thrive, are being challenged and deliver on commitments made, in close collaboration with directors and discipline leads
