As an Executive Producer at Bossa, you will be responsible for leading the development and launch of a game from a holistic and long-term perspective. You are a veteran producer with a great track record including live services, looking to take on a new challenge by identifying opportunity spaces for a game and thinking about its prospects as a business inside the larger studio.
Responsibilities
- The Why. Understanding and framing the game as an opportunity, from the business case/PNL, to its strategic fit and support of Bossa values, to leveraging team strengths and growth opportunities.
- Alignment. Orienting the wider studio and collaborating groups (game team, marketing, operations, finance) towards the above, leveraging transparency and open communication.
- Environment. Fostering a lean / learning mindset, balancing constraints and high autonomy for the game team, and supporting creativity and new possibilities alongside data-informed decisions (they are not mutually exclusive).
- Stewardship. Taking critical game-level decisions when and where necessary (high-level priorities, budget, potential pivots), leveraging inclusivity, transparency and data to minimise future misalignment.
- Leadership: Modelling the mindset and approach above; walking the talk, representing the Bossa values, and collecting feedback to constantly improve.
- Evolving production. Supporting new approaches, sharing learnings, and mentoring other producers in their growth areas.
Requirements
- A strong passion for games.
- Ability to understand and focus development around the opportunity spaces for the game and its direction, rather than delivery of features.
- Proficient in aligning multiple groups towards shared purposes, goals and priorities, and actively exploring and addressing misalignments.
- Effective leadership, with an open and inclusive approach, and the ability to adjust based on team feedback and needs.
- Excellent communication skills, including the ability to collaborate with the various studio departments and leadership.
- Growth mindset – the drive to seek out new information, new approaches, and the desire to learn and challenge your existing assumptions.
Experience
- Experience in leading production on multiple full game development cycles, from concept to live service
- Experience with multiple business and revenue models
- Experience in managing a live game with regular updates and sustainable quality, incorporating player and market data
- Familiarity with lean product / agile development approaches and their application to game development
- Multi-platform experience
Benefits
- Annual Holiday Allowance – 22 days, to increase 1 day after every year up to a maximum of 25 days. We also shut between Christmas & New Year on top of that allowance, to make sure everyone has a real break.
- Private Medical Insurance – Provided by Vitality
- Life Assurance – Tax free lump sum payment of 4 x annual salary
- Pension Scheme – We match up to 5%
- EMI Share Scheme – Generous lump sum of shares awarded upon joining which will vest over a 4 year period
- Flexible Working – Bossians now work from home permanently if they’d prefer, and for those who still want that office environment the office is open and ready for them
- Supportive family policies – 6 months fully paid maternity leave and 3 months fully paid paternity leave
- Employee Assistance Programme – 24/7 Helpline
- Cyclescheme – up to £1,000 loan deducted from monthly salary over 12 month period
- Discounted gym membership
- Travel to Work Loan – Loan deducted from monthly salary over 10 or 12 month period
