Production Director – Seasonal Content | MONOPOLY GO!
Scopely
London, England, United KingdomRemote
Scopely is looking for a Production Director – Seasonal Content to join our
MONOPOLY GO! team. This role can be based remotely in the UK or from our
Barcelona hub on a hybrid basis.
MONOPOLY GO! is a global phenomenon and the biggest mobile game launch in
history, captivating millions of players worldwide.
At Scopely, we care deeply about what we do and strive to inspire play every
day—whether through our work alongside exceptional teammates or through
unforgettable experiences for millions of players. We're a global team of game
makers building one of the world's most successful live-service games.
As the Production Director – Seasonal Content, you'll own the operational
health, planning, and execution behind MONOPOLY GO!'s seasonal content
portfolio. You'll partner across Art, Design, Product, Live Operations,
Licensing, and Content teams to ensure every season delivers exceptional
quality, creative novelty, operational excellence, and measurable player impact.
Success in this role goes beyond shipping content on schedule. You'll be
accountable for the health of the seasonal ecosystem—including content capacity,
creative ambition, production predictability, IP integration, execution quality,
and the cross-functional alignment required to consistently deliver
industry-leading live-service seasons.
This role requires an exceptional balance of strategic leadership and tactical
execution. You'll be equally comfortable shaping long-term organizational
strategy with senior leadership as you are rolling up your sleeves with
producers, artists, designers, and engineers to solve production challenges,
unblock teams, and improve execution day-to-day.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
* Lead production for the Seasonal Content organization, overseeing the
planning, execution, and successful delivery of every MONOPOLY GO! season.
* Own the operational health of the seasonal portfolio, balancing player
experience, content quality, novelty, production predictability, resource
utilization, and business objectives—not simply delivery against schedule.
* Drive the long-term evolution of the seasonal content pipeline, continuously
improving how art, design, narrative, gameplay content, rewards, licensed IP,
localization, and live operations move from concept through launch.
* Own content roadmap planning, art capacity planning, outsourcing strategy,
and resource forecasting to maximize both creative ambition and sustainable
execution.
* Partner closely with Product, Art, Design, Live Operations, Marketing, and
Licensing leadership to align priorities across multiple concurrent seasonal
initiatives.
* Operate comfortably at both the executive and production floor
levels—providing strategic direction while remaining actively involved in
milestone reviews, dependency management, issue resolution, production
planning, and critical decision making.
* Be willing to get "in the weeds" with producers and development teams to
remove blockers, resolve ambiguity, improve workflows, and ensure teams have
what they need to succeed.
* Lead cross-functional planning for major seasonal launches, proactively
identifying execution risks, staffing challenges, dependency conflicts, and
operational gaps before they impact delivery.
* Drive executive-level visibility through clear reporting, production health
metrics, risk assessments, and actionable recommendations.
* Champion continuous improvement across production methodologies, governance,
tooling, AI adoption, and content development workflows.
* Lead organizational change initiatives that improve how teams plan,
collaborate, and execute, ensuring new processes are successfully adopted
across multiple disciplines.
* Serve as a diplomatic leader who builds trust across diverse teams, navigates
competing priorities with empathy, and facilitates alignment during
high-pressure or ambiguous situations.
* Mentor Production Managers and Producers while raising the overall maturity
and effectiveness of production across the Seasonal Content organization.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
* Extensive experience leading production within large-scale live-service game
development environments.
* Deep expertise managing content-heavy production pipelines, including art
production, outsourcing, IP development, localization, approvals, and live
seasonal releases.
* Demonstrated success operating as a Production Director or equivalent leader
responsible for both organizational strategy and execution.
* Proven ability to seamlessly shift between strategic leadership and hands-on
production management, remaining deeply connected to execution while guiding
long-term organizational direction.
* Strong expertise in production planning, capacity planning, portfolio
management, dependency mapping, forecasting, and operational excellence.
* Exceptional understanding of creative development pipelines and how to
optimize art and content production without sacrificing quality or
innovation.
* Outstanding diplomacy and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to
influence senior leaders, resolve conflict constructively, and build
alignment across diverse disciplines without relying on direct authority.
* Experience leading organizations through meaningful operational change,
including introducing new production processes, organizational structures,
tools, or ways of working while driving strong adoption.
* Excellent judgment balancing player experience, creative ambition, technical
constraints, production risk, and business priorities.
* Outstanding communication, organizational leadership, and
relationship-building skills.
* Comfortable operating in fast-paced environments with rapidly evolving
priorities and complex cross-functional organizations.
* Passion for building high-performing teams, enabling creative excellence, and
delivering unforgettable seasonal experiences at world-class scale.
AI CAPABILITY & READINESS
We believe AI will fundamentally transform how content organizations operate. In
this role, you'll be expected to actively incorporate AI into production
workflows to improve planning, asset tracking, documentation, communication,
forecasting, content review, dependency management, and operational
decision-making. You'll champion thoughtful AI adoption across the Seasonal
Content organization, helping teams work faster, make better decisions, and
increase creative capacity without compromising quality. We value leaders who
are curious, experimental, and capable of driving organizational change as AI
reshapes game development.
BONUS POINTS
* Experience working on category-leading live service games.
* Experience within mobile free-to-play game development.
* Experience leading globally distributed development teams.
* Experience scaling production organizations during periods of rapid growth.
* Familiarity with modern AI productivity tools such as Claude, Codex, Cursor,
or similar, and experience applying them to production workflows.
* Experience evolving production operating models, governance frameworks, or
portfolio planning processes.
