2 years ago
As the Senior Global Business Manager, you will help support our franchise growth, incubation planning, and strategic platform partnerships.
This role provides our publishing, development, and incubation teams with accurate industry benchmarks, best-in-class business practices, and strategic platform insights to ensure the future success of Bungie. Using data, consumer insights, and creative solutions, you would be a key stakeholder for our commercial performance, ensuring our business strategy reflects our players' passion for their hobby.
You will lead the Sales Planning and Account Management teams to inform internal stakeholders on business performance, and tactically execute go-to-market plans while aligning external partners to support our commercial initiatives.
With the uncertainty and rapidly changing circumstances surrounding COVID-19, most positions at Bungie are expected to onboard and work from home for a significant portion of 2021. In 2022, most Bungie employees will adopt a flexible schedule working from home part time (outside of positions identified as either 100% onsite or fully remote in WA & CA). Currently only a select range of positions are available for full-time remote work in WA & CA (please review location for details). Prospective employees located outside of CA & WA will need to establish WA state residency within 45 days of a start date. Bungie’s work from home, flexible work schedule, and remote policy is subject to change at the company’s discretion.
