Careers
If you’re interested in working with Game If You Are in any capacity, please email jobs[at]gameifyouare[dot]com and let us know what you can do. Please note – we can’t always get back to everyone right away, but we do read every email and keep CVs and portfolios on file!
We’re often on the lookout for people with the following skillsets, on either a full-time or freelance basis. Whether you’re looking for your next permanent role or looking to help out occasionally, drop us an email and let us know what you’re looking for.
Account management / project management (full time or freelance) – Are you adept at running campaigns, leading teams, finding and commissioning freelancers, and ensuring relationships with clients and partners are properly nurtured? Exceptional project and account management are central to the service we deliver at Game If You Are – so if you can bring those skills, we’d love to hear from you! We hire for this sort of role at both junior and intermediate level on a semi-regular basis, and we’re sometimes in need of some temporary or freelance help too, so do feel free to give us a shout!
Influencer marketing and PR (full time or freelance) – Do you know the content creator space like the back of your hand? Do you have a network of contacts that you can reach out to including creators, managers and agencies? We’re running an increasing number of influencer campaigns across YouTube, Twitch, TikTok and beyond, both paid and earned. If you think you can help us improve our reach and impact in this regard, we’d love to hear from you!
Web design and development (freelance only) – We’re often in need of talented web designers and developers to craft impactful sites for our clients. We typically use WordPress and often work with template themes in order to save time and money for the small businesses we work with. We like working with web people who can own the whole process from concept to migration and go-live, although we often spin up mini project teams with a designer and a developer collaborating under the direction of one of our campaign managers.
Designers and illustrators (freelance only) – We craft impactful brand identities, logos, and key marketing assets for our clients. This means we frequently work with both designers and illustrators to make the magic happen. Whatever your style, we’d love to hear from you – send us a portfolio and rate card!
Video producers/editors (freelance only) – We help our clients craft trailers that make their games stand out from the crowd. We’re always looking for video producers who can work collaboratively with us and our clients to deliver high-quality, slick, memorable video content for our campaigns. Get in touch if that sounds like you!
Mock reviewers (freelance only) – We often work with professional journalists and influencers who can help us and our clients understand how their games are likely to perform in the media landscape. From quick consultation sessions to fully fledged mock content, we have a variety of opportunities available. Please get in touch with details of your experience/bylines and rates. Please note, we always anonymise mock reviews unless you agree otherwise.
Game If You Are is a mostly remote-working company, although staff occasionally work from our office space, which is located a short walk away from the city centre of Brighton on the south coast of England. We’re an energetic and ambitious agency in which projects move fast and information flows quickly; where each and every one of us tries to be bold and brilliant every day. We value close collaboration, and our team love the supportive environment we’ve fostered here – in spite of the fact of us being scattered all over the country and beyond!
Diversity & Inclusion: We are constantly looking to improve the diversity of our team, and believe passionately in the value of different backgrounds, cultures, and life experiences. If you don’t see many people like you working in similar roles, we’d especially love to hear from you.
In addition to competitive pay packages, an employee pension scheme, and a set of friendly faces to collaborate with each day, Game If You Are’s team members all get…
Flexible working arrangements – We work a 36.5-hour week with core hours of 10AM-4PM (UK time) Monday to Friday. Our team members can work the remaining ten hours a week whenever works best for them – whether early in the morning, later in the evening, or in the middle of Saturday night if for some reason they’re so inclined!
Monthly homeworking allowance – All employees who regularly work from home receive a monthly tax-free contribution toward the cost of doing so, on top of their basic salary.
Minimum of 33 days of paid annual leave – All UK bank holidays, a whole-company break between Christmas and New Year, plus 20 days of extra leave to book at your convenience.
14 weeks’ fully paid parental leave – Available to all qualifying employees, regardless of gender, and regardless of whether you’re expecting a biological child or adopting.
Meaningful professional development – With tailored training plans, regular 1:1s, and the opportunity to carve your own path within the agency.
A commitment to employee wellbeing – We believe in the importance of work/life balance and invest in our team’s wellbeing. Overtime is a rarity and we offer TOIL when it’s unavoidable. We’re a mental health- and neurodiversity-friendly work environment, and a founding partner in Safe In Our World’s ‘Level Up’ initiative – driving best-practice for staff wellbeing in the video games industry.
