Narrative Director | London | Hybrid | Open to exceptional remote candidates
We are looking for an exceptional, seasoned individual with a track record of building incredible worlds from the ground up.
The Role
You will be the first person to own the narrative and play ecosystem that children step into, inhabit, and make their own. You will design the systems, write the words, and build the architecture that will scale to millions of children across the globe. This is hands‑on work, you will be doing the writing and the designing, not handing off a brief. You will be making foundational decisions that shape the product for years. That prospect should excite you.
You bring exceptional ability to create rich, playable stories and worlds.
- Games systems literacy, you think in loops, feedback, and emergent worlds, not just narrative. You understand what earns a child’s return to a world
- Master world‑builder; you craft lore, rules, and geographies that feel alive, coherent, and endlessly explorable
- Systems fluency; you understand the plumbing and mechanics that make a play system work, and you can document those decisions in ways that are teachable and scalable
- The ability to lead creative vision and collaborate fluidly with designers, developers, and sound engineers
- Highly skilled at writing interactive and physical story worlds
- Recognised, celebrated work that has pushed the boundaries of interactive and physical storytelling and moved audiences across the globe
- You are energised by building from scratch, comfortable with ambiguity.
