Skillsearch is helping a games studio in London find an experienced Release Manager. This full-time role is based in London and comes with a generous salary and benefits.

As a Release Manager, you will own and manage the release process, delivering near-weekly patches to a cross-platform live service game on PC and consoles.

  • The ability to contextualise individual issues to broader business and player impact, and triage that impact against other priorities and goals
  • Experience with common CI/CD tooling and practices
  • Knowledge of Unreal Engine 5 is a plus.
If you're looking to impact and create change positively, you'll be rewarded with an excellent salary and benefits package for your inclusive and committed approach, including 33 days of holiday inclusive of bank holidays, stock options healthcare packages and more
