Description

Based in the heart of Leamington Spa, Pixel Toys have spent almost a decade pushing the capabilities of mobile gaming. We have developed multiple award-winning titles, including: Warhammer 40,000: Freeblade, Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realm War; and we’re now excited to be exclusively working on a new game, unlike ANYTHING we’ve done previously!
As a forward thinking and innovative studio we are always looking for new technologies and techniques to develop and use in our games and make them even more engaging experiences for our customers.
We are excited to continue to grow our team and are always on the lookout for highly talented and motivated individuals, who are passionate about gaming and excited to join us on our ambitious journey!

Responsibilities

We are now looking for a seasoned and strategic Production Director to lead the production efforts on an ambitious, large-scale game development project. This is a senior-level position reporting directly to the VP of Development, with a central focus on streamlining production processes, overseeing resource and capacity planning, and ensuring the project roadmap remains aligned with our long-term goals and creative vision.
You will play a critical role in driving operational excellence across all teams by identifying and implementing process improvements. This includes the development and adoption of best practices across Agile, Scrum, and “Wagile” methodologies. Monitoring production efficiency through key metrics and refining workflows will be essential to maintaining a high-performing development environment.
You will also contribute heavily to the strategic roadmap. Working closely with the VP of Development and key publisher-side project leaders, you will help shape and manage the development input into the overall project trajectory. Here you will ensure that executional project details are seamlessly integrated into broader roadmap goals where you will closely track progress and proactively identify and mitigate areas of risk.
On top of strategic communication and thorough documentation, you will prepare and deliver strategic reports that offer clear insight into performance metrics and resource utilisation.
Resource and capacity management will be a constant focus; monitoring team workloads to maintain balance, avoid bottlenecks, and forecast future capacity needs based on evolving project demands. You will strategically allocate resources to ensure timely delivery, without compromising team well-being or productivity.
This role involves close collaboration with Production Managers and the finance team in order to develop and track feature and content budgets, identifying and escalating potential budget risks while ensuring that all resources are deployed in a cost-effective manner.
This is a rare opportunity to shape the production framework of an exciting project from the inside out, helping guide it to success through clear strategy, strong leadership, and collaborative excellence.
