Head of Marketing

Devoted Studios is a globally remote development company specializing in Co-development, Porting, and End-to-End Art Production for the global gaming industry. We collaborate across time zones to support projects on all major platforms, engines and styles - from AAA titles to emerging technologies. Our team includes world-class talents who bring deep expertise in external development, pipeline optimization, and creative problem-solving. Whether it’s porting games to new systems, enhancing gameplay features, or crafting stunning visuals, Devoted Studios operates as a trusted, flexible extension of our partners’ internal teams. We are proud to be the development partner of choice for industry leaders such as: Epic Xbox Meta Obsidian Entertainment Riot Gearbox Software Devoted Studios has one of the strongest brand presences in GameDev. We are looking for a senior marketing leader to own the function end to end. You will own the brand, the content, the podcast, and everything our sales team takes into a client conversation. You will report directly to the CEO, work as a genuine partner to her, raising the bar on what we already do well, keeping everything tightly connected to what actually matters for the business, and building the automation infrastructure that lets us move faster without adding noise. The team is small, efficient, and ships. What it needs is a leader with taste and judgement — someone who sets the direction, decides where the effort goes, and holds the standard. Someone with deep industry experience, genuine creative taste, and the operational discipline to run a high-performing business function. We are looking for someone who lives and breathes automation. A systems operator. Someone who sees inefficiency and removes it. Who builds infrastructure instead of adding headcount. Who leverages AI, workflows, and data to create leverage at scale. This is a high-expectation role for a high-output leader. If you think in terms of systems, performance, and compounding advantage, you’ll thrive here. Key Responsibilities: Brand & Positioning Across social, podcast, website, events and client materials, you are the guardian of the Devoted brand — high quality, consistent voice, and a clear sense of where we’re going. Evolve our positioning as the business grows, and keep it sharp against the market Hold the quality bar across every external touchpoint Own the website, brand assets, conference presence, merch, and partnership materials Commission and direct creative work rather than producing it yourself Sales & Client Materials Our BD team owns client relationships. You own what they walk in with. Pitch decks, sales decks, case studies and capability materials should make Devoted the obvious choice before anyone speaks. Own the pitch and sales deck library, and keep it current with what we are actually delivering Turn shipped projects into case studies and proof points, working with production and engineering to get the detail Package our core services — porting, co-development, art, engineering — so each one is clearly positioned rather than described generically Work closely with BD on what lands in client conversations, and sharpen accordingly Social & Content We have a strong social presence and an experienced team behind it. Your job is to keep it excellent, accurate, and pointed at something. Set the content direction and make sure what we publish reflects real production work and milestones Coordinate with clients on material approvals and IP permissions, with zero tolerance on publishing anything uncleared Direct our marketing automation and AI workflows, built and maintained in-house, so the team gets more from what it produces Oversee community management in coordination with community leads Devoted Speakeasy Podcast Devoted Speakeasy is one of the industry’s most respected voices in GameDev. It has a loyal audience and a strong identity. Your job is to protect that and keep it sharp, not to turn it into a marketing funnel. Maintain editorial quality and brand consistency Oversee guest pipeline and production cadence Ensure podcast content gets properly amplified across other channels Keep the tone and positioning true to what makes Speakeasy worth listening to Team & Delivery You will lead a team of experienced marketing professionals and take full ownership of how they deliver.
