Senior Producer

With a passion to deliver high-end cinematic games, Supermassive Games is carving a unique and exciting path in the games industry. Want to join us on the journey?

Supermassive Games are seeking a Senior Producer to work on one of our exciting new projects!

Their role will be to support the growth of our studio and ambition of our current development portfolio. This is not a typical producer role (if there is such a thing) and we need people who understand that a great manager works for their team, not the other way round.

We strongly believe in people taking ownership and responsibility and that working together as teams to solve problems, achieve goals and deliver working software is critical to our success.

The role reports to the Director responsible for the P&L of one of our studio teams at Supermassive.

The Role

Working in one of our game teams to ensure the successful delivery of the title, you will need to come prepared to do whatever it takes to help the teams to be successful.

Key Responsibilities

• Project planning at both a high level ‘big picture’ and detailed, week-by-week task-focused plans
• Working with a wide range of people from the most senior to the most junior, willing to both listen carefully and challenge hard
• Team management with an adaptable (by situation) style, focused on facilitative leadership as opposed to ‘command and control’
• A grasp of Agile and especially Scrum – for example, working as part of a Scrum team or acting as Scrum Master
• Identifying process and planning issues and tenaciously following through to resolve them, adapting the teams approach to improve performance
