• Analyse market trends and competitor activities to identify opportunities and challenges, informing strategic decisions and driving continuous improvement in our marketing efforts.

• Collaborate strategically and tactically with internal teams and external partners, including product development, agencies, vendors, and media, to execute strategic marketing initiatives and successful product launches.

We think you’ll thrive with us if you are:

A culturally astute marketer who understands the nuances of different cultures and knows how to tailor strategies that resonate globally. You appreciate diversity and can effectively engage audiences and coworkers from various backgrounds. A strategic visionary who sees the bigger picture and prioritises long-term success over short-term wins. You enjoy setting ambitious goals and crafting plans that drive sustainable growth. Inherently curious, eager to learn and explore new trends, technologies, and ideas. You believe that curiosity fuels innovation and keeps you ahead in the ever-evolving marketing landscape. Hands-on and adaptable, not afraid to roll up your sleeves and dive into the operational details when needed. You thrive in dynamic environments where you can switch between high-level strategy and day-to-day execution. A collaborative leader who works seamlessly with cross-functional teams, inspiring and guiding them toward common objectives. You value open communication and believe that the best results come from collective effort.

What you can expect from us

• A passionate team that’s shaping the future of gaming! Plus, you’ll finally get to say, “I work in the gaming industry!” – how cool is that?

• Exciting travel opportunities to attend the world's largest gaming conferences, where you'll connect with industry leaders and stay at the forefront of gaming trends.

• Work-Life Balance – We get it, life happens! Whether it's errands, appointments, mental offloading or family time, you get the flexibility to shape your schedule.

• A work culture built on our core values: We go above and beyond (“Extra-Ordinary”), we put people first (“Human-Centric”), we stay dedicated (“Committed”), we communicate openly (“Clear & Transparent”) and we always do the right thing (“Integrity”)
