Brand Game Director

Who we are

We are GoSpooky. An incredibly fast-moving bunch of unconventional storytellers, social media superstars, and slam-dunking creatives. We know all things internet culture and create scroll-stopping content people actually want to share. One thing we all have in common: we’re always on the lookout for attention. At GoSpooky, we believe in being authentic, bold, and creative—it’s the essence of who we are. We’re on the lookout for like-minded talent who share these values and thrive on pushing boundaries by shaking up social media. We need people who aren’t afraid to experiment, think outside the box, and embrace challenges with enthusiasm. If you’re someone who spots an opportunity in the morning and brings it to life by the afternoon, we’d love to hear from you.

What we do

We are where brands, gamers, and platforms come together. We focus on representing brands to gaming audiences in a seamless way, where our audience is naturally excited to engage with what a brand has to offer. As a social native company across multiple channels, we have a deep understanding of attention. Social Gaming is shaping up to be an incredibly important channel for us, and we are looking for a game director to take our expertise to the next level.

We are looking for someone who can work 32-40 hours weekly.

The Action:

As a Brand Game Director at GoSpooky, you are responsible for representing our clients to gaming audiences, and vice versa. You will define and own the strategy for gaming environments to meet our clients' marketing needs while ensuring an engaging gameplay experience for the players on platforms like Roblox and Fortnite. You will create a vision for how we will position clients on gaming platforms, and break this vision down in the shorter term by designing gameplay and core mechanics. You will collaborate with both our team of creative game developers and artists, as well as our clients to bring your vision of the brand’s representation on social gaming platforms to life.

Core responsibilities:

• Define and maintain the creative vision for brand integrations in gaming platforms.
• Design gameplay and core mechanics to ensure engaging and fun experiences for players.
• Represent and advocate for the best gaming platforms suited to our clients’ marketing objectives.
• Develop long-term game roadmaps for client projects, and plan the milestones required to take us there.
• Use a data & metrics-driven strategy to continuously improve player retention, acquisition, and other important KPIs.
  
  

What you'll bring:

• 4-5 years of industry experience in game design, specifically with a focus on branded content.
• Demonstrated ability to represent clients, players, and platforms effectively.
• Proven track record of blending multiple interests into a single coherent vision and strategy.
• Deep understanding of player acquisition and retention strategies.
• Experience managing client relationships and leading project teams is highly desirable.
