- Coach established Community and Social Media Managers with a range of experience levels, sharing your expertise and leadership one-on-one and at the team level to help them meet personal and team progression goals
- Work with Community Leads at the project level to assess and manage performance, resourcing, training, budgets, process, and tools, advocating for what they need to realise our studio goals for player-centric development
- Collaborate with leadership across the studio to identify opportunities and drive improvement in how we keep our players at the centre of how we make, market, deliver, and support our games
- Adapt our approach to meet the needs of specific projects and player audiences, while building a studio-wide vision and standard for how we support, grow, and engage our player community
- Drive ongoing review and improvement of how we develop and deliver our community communications, exploring and testing new opportunities that relate to our studio objectives and audience expectations
- Represent the Community discipline throughout the studio, improving internal understanding, education, and engagement in the shared responsibility for delivering AAA gaming experiences to our players.

- Senior Community leadership in a gaming environment
- Medium-sized team leadership, mentoring and career development
