We’re looking for highly experienced Lead Producers to join the following game teams:
Clash Royale - become a key member of the Clash Royale team on their mission towards making Clash Royale the thing you do whenever you have 5 minutes to spend
Brawl Stars - become the first-ever producer for the Brawl Stars team
Mo.co - join the team on an exciting journey towards becoming a massive global hit
We’re looking for individuals who can thrive in a dynamic, fast-moving environment while owning the entire project plan for the game’s development cycles.
You are a force multiplier for any team you work with. You empower everyone to collaborate productively. You create visibility into the project’s scope, risks, and resourcing needs, and you work seamlessly with the team to plan the best way to deliver high-quality releases. You are a pro at driving multiple development tracks and ensuring deadlines are consistently met in a sustainable way.
We offer you a chance to join a team of professionals where talent feeds talent. We believe game development is a team sport and work together to achieve the best results. So, it’s paramount that you’re a strong team player as well! We trust each other’s skills and value each other’s work. All of us are driven by the fantastic opportunity to make a game played by tens of millions of players better and better.
As a producer on a Supercell game team, whether a new game or one of our existing live games, you will not be slowed down by too complicated approval processes. Instead, you have the freedom to define the ways of working, tools and processes that best support the team’s work – if this challenge excites you, then you might just be the person we are looking for!
