Description du poste

About Voodoo

Founded in 2013, Voodoo is a tech company that creates mobile games and apps with a mission to entertain the world. It has 1,000 employees, 7 billion downloads, $1 b+ revenues and over 200 million active users, ranking as the #3 mobile publisher worldwide in terms of downloads after Google and Meta. The portfolio includes chart‑topping games like Mob Control and Block Jam, alongside popular apps such as BeReal and Wizz.

Role

You will work directly with Voodoo's CEO as a force multiplier on the company's highest‑stakes topics. This is an operating role, not a support role: you own outcomes on strategic projects, incubate new ventures, keep the company's operating rhythm sharp, and lead a small team of Special Project Managers who act as Voodoo's internal consulting force.

What you will do

• Run strategic projects with the CEO — frame the problem, drive the analysis, align leaders, and push to execution on topics spanning M&A, market expansion, monetization, and organization.
• Explore and launch new ventures — assess opportunities beyond the current portfolio, build the business case, assemble a founding team, and launch V1 to market.
• Manage company routines — own the operating cadence: leadership meetings, business reviews, OKR/goal cycles, board preparation; ensure decisions get made and followed through.
• Drive the SPM team — recruit, staff, and coach internal consultants deployed on the company's most pressing operational problems; own prioritization of their portfolio.
• Be the CEO's proxy — represent him in meetings, unblock cross‑functional issues, and surface what he needs to know before it becomes urgent.

What we're looking for

• 6–10 years of experience combining top‑tier strategy consulting (Engagement Manager / Project Leader level at MBB), or M&A/PE, and operating experience in a hypergrowth tech company (BizOps, strategy, GM, or founder).
• Track record of leading cross‑functional projects at C‑level with measurable business impact.
• Entrepreneurial: has built something from scratch (venture, business line, market launch).
• Strong analytical and financial fluency — comfortable with a P&L, unit economics, and data.
• Exceptional communication: crisp, top‑down, comfortable challenging senior leaders.
• Low ego, absolute discretion, and stamina for a fast pace; obsessive about follow‑through.
• Top‑tier academic background.
• Fluent English (French is a plus); gaming/consumer‑app affinity a plus.

What We Offer

• Daily exposure to the CEO and leadership of the world's #3 mobile publisher.
• A launchpad role: previous holders of comparable seats typically move into GM/VP/founder roles.
• Competitive package.

Benefits

• Swile Lunch voucher
• Gymlib (100% borne by Voodoo)
• Premium healthcare coverage SideCare, for your family 100% borne by Voodoo
• Wellness activities in our Paris office
