Job Description
When you’re a Marketing Product Manager at Ubi MTL, you drive individual marketing initiatives from creative concept to launch to provide players with opportunities to further engage with a brand. Be it a trailer, event, or in-game cosmetic, every one of your products enriches the overall experience of a game, adding to its initial offering.
You have the ability to navigate between vision, strategy, and hands-on implementation – oftentimes, simultaneously. Dedicated to maintaining a deep understanding of our community, you always stay player-centric. You know that great product marketing comes down to empathizing with your audience – and catering specifically to them.
What you’ll do
- Work closely with production teams to understand the game’s brand identity, target market, and creative vision + stay up to date on its content release schedule.
- Come up with product ideas that fit the feel of the game and enhance its intended experience.
- Pitch your concepts (and showcase their value and purpose) + validate, discuss, and refine them with interdependent teams.
- Define product priorities and strategies + manage the marketing roadmap and communications timelines.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (monetization, brand, external specialists, business, public relations, etc.) to develop and execute products, rallying everyone behind them.
- Partner with consumer research and community management to gather player insights + understand and address feedback and performance, sharing your learnings across the production floor.
- Research and monitor market trends to identify exposure opportunities.
Qualifications
What you bring
- Product management or marketing experience (or related experience)
- Understanding of pop culture and the video game production process
- A highly collaborative spirit (building and delivering products is a huge team effort, after all)
- Ability to translate analytical findings into actionable insights to inform decision making
- A healthy regard for feedback: it’s data, which you consider to be a powerful tool
- Excellent prioritization, interpersonal, and English & French communication skills + an eye for detail
- An adaptable approach to presentation: you can read the room and adjust your delivery accordingly
- A whole lot of flexibility to handle the many changes that will come up throughout production: you can respond to (and perhaps even relish?) moments of unpredictability
Just a heads up: If you require a work permit, your eligibility may depend on your education and years of relevant work experience, as required by the government.
What to send our way
- You CV, highlighting your education, experience, and skills
- A cover letter letting us know why this opportunity appeals to you
