Project Manager
Love video games? Love football? Love turning a creative spark into scroll-stopping content? We’re looking for an experienced Project Manager who can manage and deliver sharp, impactful creative, from idea to final asset, with a special focus on football / football game content. If you’re part creative, part organiser, obsessed with football culture, and know what makes fans feel something on socials, this one's for you.
Please note that this role is on-site at our Leeds city centre office only. Remote working is not an option at this time, but may be a possibility in the future.
WHO ARE OTHER THINGS?
We’re a creative agency with a focus on the gaming and entertainment industries. We produce a lot of videos, websites, marketing and brand assets, and all the other creative bits in-between, for some of the world’s biggest gaming brands.
We’re called Other Things.
WHAT'S THE JOB?
You’ll help manage and produce a wide range of creative projects - from trailers and short-form videos to social assets and campaigns, working closely with our creatives, freelancers, and clients to make sure everything lands on time, on brief, and on point.
You’ll be deeply involved in work related to a well-known AAA football game - producing reactive content ideas, campaign concepts and BAU digital assets that speak the language of the fans. You should have a solid handle on football culture (the memes, the moments, the madness), as well as how football lives on social platforms.
And yes, for the avoidance of doubt, you should be a fan of football video games. If that’s not enough, you’ll also be working on other amazing IPs for indie - AAA studios.
