Video-First Content Creator

ABOUT GRID GAMES

We're an independent AA studio founded by two brothers with a dream; inspired by games like Anarchy Online, Star Wars Galaxies, Neocron and WoW, we're pushing the bounds of the genre with polished gameplay, vibrant visuals, and a dash of creative ideas never seen before.

With a passion for immersive world building, our fast-growing team of multi-national talent is using Unreal Engine 5 to build a revolutionary MMORPG that blends traditional philosophies with trailblazing innovation.

Our studio in Weesp is easily accessible by public transport (station Weesp) and car (A1), and offers an environment where positive work culture stands central to effective collaboration. Working in-house at Grid Games means an opportunity to directly shape the evolution of our ambitious vision.

WE’RE LOOKING FOR

A highly creative, hands-on Content Creator with 4+ years experience producing content across platforms. The ideal candidate is both a conceptual thinker and an exceptional maker—someone who can ideate, write, plan, shoot, and edit content independently and as part of a team.

Just as important: You’re an experienced gamer with a keen understanding of how content and community intersect in modern game marketing.

In this role you will:

Work closely with the whole studio (art, development, animation, etc.) leveraging your skills to create high-quality content for our on-going content streams (interviews, or live-ops content, etc.), socials, and marketing efforts.

• Write/plan, shoot and edit medium to long-form video content including art/development stories and interviews, live-streams, recaps, supercuts, teasers, trailers and more.
• You’ll setup shots around the studio and in our dedicated content and streaming studio, using high-end cameras (BM 4k Pro, Lumix GH7) and lighting.
• Review performance data, absorb internal and community feedback—all in service of on-going process and creative improvements.
• Pitch new series or formats that reach beyond our existing community, informed by the aforementioned feedback and your genuine interest in all aspects of game development.

Ultimately, as a gamer and creator, you'll play a key role in how we build hype, communicate progress, grow our community, and bring our game to market.

YOUR QUALIFICATIONS

• Able to balance creative ambition with practical marketing and business goals
• English fluency in speaking and writing and you can effectively communicate in any medium: presentations, email, conference calls, etc.
