Job description

Red Rover Interactive is an exciting new game development studio founded by industry veterans from renowned companies such as Funcom, Lockwood Publishing, Bohemia Interactive, Ubisoft Reflections, and more. We're on a mission to reimagine the multiplayer gaming landscape, with an emphasis on crafting groundbreaking survival experiences that champion player agency and drama.

The Role:

We are seeking a Content Manager to own, create, and elevate Red Rover Interactive's content output across our channels. This is a hands‑on role for someone who can turn moments into compelling stories. You'll combine strong creative instincts with solid planning and performance awareness, working closely with our Publishing & Marketing Lead and internal teams to deliver consistent, player‑forward content that feels authentic, on‑brand and platform‑native.

• Own the end‑to‑end creation of visual content including but not limited to short‑form and long‑form video editing in Premiere and graphics/asset creation in Photoshop (thumbnails, key art adaptations, social templates, promotional graphics).

• Drive a content pipeline from concept to finish: ideation, scripting, capture requests, editing and packaging.

• Act as a brand ambassador/player‑forward ‘face’ for Red Rover Interactive and our games, bringing your own personal flair to your content and messaging (on‑camera/voice content where appropriate).

• Collaborate with the Publishing & Marketing Lead to coordinate and develop campaigns and content strategies that support key beats (announcements, updates, launches, partnerships).

• Work with the development teams to align on brand visuals and build reusable systems (Photoshop templates, Premiere project structures, caption styles, export presets) that improve speed and consistency.

We are looking for someone who:

• Expert‑level Adobe Premiere Pro skills: strong short‑form pacing and hooks, clean audio, captions/subtitles workflows, platform‑specific exports and the ability to turn raw footage into compelling stories.

• Expert‑level Adobe Photoshop skills: strong composition and typography fundamentals, iteration and file delivery (organized layers) and confidence creating templates/variants for campaigns.

• Excellent storytelling: you can translate game moments into content people want to watch and share.

• Ability to work independently and as part of a team in a fast‑paced environment, juggling multiple deliverables without dropping quality.

• Strong platform understanding across socials and what “platform‑native” means for each.

• Analytical mindset with the ability to interpret data and draw actionable insights.

In addition we expect you to:

• 3+ years of experience in content management with a portfolio that demonstrates editing and visual craft.

• Relevant games industry experience, streaming experience would be a plus.

How We Work:

We strongly believe that our team and culture are integral to building creative and innovative games, to this ends we prioritize an office‑first approach with hybrid home working options. With office locations in Oslo, Norway, and Newcastle, UK, we foster a collaborative and inclusive work environment where each team member's contribution is valued.

The Application Process:

If you know someone on the team, feel free to reach out directly - a personal recommendation speaks volumes. Our hiring process is streamlined to respect your time. Expect an introductory call with our Head of People, followed by a formal interview and skills assessment. In the final interview, you'll meet the remaining founding members to learn about our vision and strategy.

Are you a trailblazer yearning to make a substantial impact? We're seeking self‑driven professionals who:

• Flourish in a fast‑paced startup environment.
• Take initiative and drive development forward.
• Adapt effortlessly to wearing multiple hats.
• Foster innovation through a fail‑fast mindset.

If this resonates with you, we invite you to join the ranks of Red Rover Interactive!
