    From well-known franchises to freshly-minted originals, we offer the chance to join brilliant creators shaping a new generation of entertainment in a concentrated, agile environment where every perspective matters, and any idea can create a breakthrough.

    Opportunity
    Skybound is looking for an owner-minded Senior Marketing Manager to pilot promotional efforts on a new slate of games.

    As Senior Marketing Manager, you will work from the earliest stages of development, using research to identify player communities, contribute to product definition and feature set, and define product vision and positioning.

    Throughout production, you will serve as a critical stakeholder, representing the customer at all times, and engineering your own success by providing input into development investments, feature priorities and quality standards.

    As Senior Marketing Manager, you will leverage insights to build a go-to-market strategy which you lead a team to execute.

    You'll inform the initial bedrock of game investments via the product P&L, bringing to bear strong genre sensibilities and a broad knowledge of previous titles and player communities.

    Results-oriented, with an understanding of how to apply ROI and KPI's for marketing campaigns
    Skilled in data analysis and reporting, particularly for launch marketing campaigns
    Strong product management experience, with understanding of live service product life cycles
    Excellent organization and time management skills with the ability to manage multiple assignments at once
    Polished professional who is comfortable serving as the main contact for executives, internal stakeholders, partners, and third-party agencies

    Based on the groundbreaking comic book by Robert Kirkman, Cory Walker, and Ryan Ottley,

    revolves around 18-year-old Mark Grayson, who's just like every other guy his age—except his father is (or was) the most powerful superhero on the planet.

    Still reeling from Nolan's betrayal in Season One, Mark struggles to rebuild his life as he faces a host of new threats, all while battling his greatest fear - that he might become his father without even knowing it.

    The show stars Steven Yeun, with Sandra Oh, Zazie Beetz, Grey Griffin, Chris Diamantopoulos, Walton Goggins, Gillian Jacobs, Jason Mantzoukas, Ross Marquand, Khary Payton, Zachary Quinto, Andrew Rannells, Kevin Michael Richardson, Seth Rogen, and J.K.
