As a Game Designer you will act as a champion of quality across the team, working with various disciplines to implement key systems and features, and using visual scripting and proprietary tools to build content in Fable.

Our ideal candidate is a technically proficient Designer who is passionate about their craft, skilled in all aspects of Game Design, demonstrates a willingness to be hands on and has the track record to prove it.

This is a permanent role based at our state-of-the-art facilities in Royal Leamington Spa. We have a hybrid work model in place with a minimum of 3 days a week in studio. Relocation assistance is available if required.

What you’ll do:

  • Use tools and scripting within our custom, proprietary engine to implement features and content to the highest standard and deliver on the project’s vision.
  • Implement and maintain high-quality feature and system designs.
  • Work with a highly motivated, talented cross-discipline team to deliver content to expectations.

What you’ll bring:

  • Industry experience in game design positions
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Strong ability to design game systems and mechanics and align other disciplines around design intent
  • Passion for problem identification and solving
  • Demonstrable experience using scripting tools or similar
  • Interest in collaborating within a team of diverse perspectives
  • A flexible, highly motivated and friendly approach to your work
  • A genuine passion for video games
  • Text-based scripting ability in C++, C# or similar is desired but not essential
