Frontier is an established, market leading independent developer and publisher of videogames for PC and consoles. We have achieved serial successes across a wide variety of titles including Elite Dangerous , Planet Coaster , Jurassic World Evolution , Planet Zoo and F1 Manager . Founded in 1994, we are based in the world-leading technology cluster and historic city of Cambridge, England. With a growing team of over 800 talented people supporting our existing portfolio and ambitious future roadmap, along with our publishing label Frontier Foundry, we are passionate about creating innovative genre-leading games and authentic worlds for our communities of players.

The Role

As part of our continued growth we have a vacancy for a User Research Producer. In this newly created role you will work closely with our talented development teams and help co-ordinate user research testing across multiple projects. You will organise focused internal testing along with larger scale external testing to provide valuable player insights and data for our developers to leverage.

UR is a growth area within Frontier and we’re looking for an individual who is motivated by the challenge of helping to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our UR testing going forward. We’re very keen to expand upon our existing UR services for both our internally developed and externally developed Frontier Foundry projects, and the successful candidate will work with a variety of game genres and discipline teams.

Previous UR experience is not essential but you will need previous experience in a senior game development or co-ordination role, along with strong communication and organisation skills. You will partner with various teams across Frontier to facilitate a wide range of research objectives. Be prepared to collaborate with fellow developers to understand their needs and then coordinate effective UR plans. If you’re an advocate for excellent player experiences and skilled in planning, you may be the ideal candidate for the role!
