Job Title: Senior Producer (Design)

Working Model: Hybrid 2-3 days per week in Studio
Location: Here East, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London, E15 2GW
Position Overview
We are hiring a Senior Design Producer to elevate and accelerate design delivery across Football Manager. This role exists to bring assertive, pro-active ownership to the day-to-day execution of work across our UIUX, narrative, and game design teams (consisting of ~20 designers across multiple features & initiatives).
Following two challenging cycles we are looking for a highly organised, experienced producer who can ensure design work is clearly planned, communicated, and delivered predictably without compromising creative quality. On an annual release cadence, it is imperative that design lead the way early and that work is not allowed to drift or delay development. You will be accountable for ensuring design work is delivered at pace and is ready to enter production. You will ensure that dependencies and risks are surfaced early, and progress tracked with clarity and intent.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Whilst you will primarily take ownership of day-to-day execution, as a senior member of the production group you will also help shape process, mentor producers, and act as a trusted partner to design and production leadership.
Key Responsibilities
- Assertive accountability for delivery of UIUX, narrative, and game design output across multiple features and initiatives
- Operate with urgency and efficiency in the context of an annual release cadence
- Successfully position design to be delivering ahead of the next iteration, not reacting late
- Partner with Design Leads to translate creative vision into achievable plans, timelines, and milestones
- Proactively identify delivery risks, dependencies, capacity constraints, and mitigation strategies
- Safeguard design quality through effective planning that considers stakeholder feedback and iteration loops
- Ensure validation gates are utilised and requirements satisfied to enable designs to move into production with confidence
- Drive build reviews and continuous improvement initiatives
- Support evolution and improvement of design production processes to enable clarity, consistency, and scalability
- Provide clear, concise, and actionable updates on progress, risks, and decisions
- Facilitate alignment and collaboration across creative, technical, and production perspectives
