Associate Producer

Job Description

As an Associate Producer, you will oversee the narrative development of the game (cinematic teams, direction, scriptwriting, scripted events, and audio). This involves the specific mission of organizing recording sessions (mocap and audio), respecting budgets to meet quality objectives, and relying on Ubisoft’s internal service teams. This may also include elements of casting.

Through careful planning, monitoring, and supervision, you will maintain the development pace, ensuring that time is devoted to the right tasks and adjusting as needed.

While pushing production capacity and quality, you will ensure your team is ready and able to deliver its part of the game on time in a welcoming environment.

What you will do

• Work in partnership with the leadership team to understand the overall game vision and requirements and communicate them to the production team.
• Define the scope of your specific domain: determine its deliverables, quality objectives, and key milestones; establish development strategies and budgets.
• Prepare for production by developing workflows and pipelines and implementing solutions to facilitate team collaboration.
• Set clear objectives for your team members and ensure the process of achieving these goals is as seamless as possible.
• Anticipate risks and implement action plans to overcome them.
• Meet with your team to clarify milestones, prioritize deliverables, review progress, address concerns, provide guidance, and gather feedback.
• Synchronize with the Producer, Production Director, and production managers on progress and momentum, and monitor budgets.
• Identify opportunities to improve and evolve processes, methods, and practices.
• Participate in recruitment to build your team and support their professional development and career progression.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of production or project management experience in the video game industry.
• Strong experience in narrative execution (at least cinematics) in video games.
• Skills in managing external partner relationships (contracts, vendor and talent relations) with the support of a dedicated team.
• Excellence in problem-solving, flexibility, and assertiveness.
• Great adaptability to a variety of situations and ability to manage interdependencies.
• Familiarity with various project management methodologies.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and presentation skills.
• Collaborative, attentive, and innovative mindset.
• A people-focused approach: you care about results but never lose sight of the dedicated people producing them.

What to submit

• Your resume highlighting your experience, skills, and, if applicable, delivered games.
