Live Operations & Monetization Lead, Brawl Stars

You could be the Live Operations & Monetization Lead that the Brawl Stars team is calling for. The one to drive growth by owning the strategy and initiatives that impact top line performance. The one to seize the unique opportunity to work on one of the biggest and most recognizable mobile games in the world, and directly shape how they are being operated for millions of players every day.

You’ll build and manage a high performance team that drives business growth and takes game performance to the next level. You build it, you own it! Your team will own the full strategy and operations for live ops, monetization and economy, and it is your responsibility as a Lead to constantly assess and evolve the capabilities required within your team to reach your growth ambitions.

You’re not going solo on the challenge. As a key stakeholder on the game leadership team, you will report directly to the General Manager of your game and collaborate closely with peers across other functions. You will also be a cornerstone of the horizontal Live Operations & Monetization function which aims to continuously raise the performance bar across Supercell, and be actively involved in key strategic company initiatives.
