Our Corporate Ambassador Sports Interactive is looking to fill the role of Production Director.
Here’s an overview
This is a newly created senior role with a clear mandate to change how the studio manages delivery, improving quality, predictability, and our ability to deliver on time and to budget.
This is a critical leadership position, interfacing closely with the senior leadership team, the wider studio, and SEGA’s Development Services teams.
You will be responsible for turning creative ambition into high-quality, annually delivered games across a multi-year, multi-SKU roadmap, with deep technical, design, and production interdependencies.
This means owning how work is planned, sequenced, staffed, tracked, tested, and ultimately shipped and being clear around what is and is not achievable within an annual cycle.
Our yearly multi-SKU release model brings real intensity and pressure.
We need someone who stays calm under that pressure, understands the trade-offs it creates, and can make hard calls early rather than deferring them to later when it’s difficult to change course.
You’ll lead a large, multi-layered production led organisation, with real authority over delivery standards, operating rhythm, and execution.
You’ll work alongside creative and technical leadership across Technology, Design, Art & Animation to ensure ambition and realism stay in balance and that decisions are made early enough to matter.
It’s a hybrid role, working 2-3 days at Sports Interactive’s East London studio.
