Job Description:
The Analyst, Studio Strategy and Operations will play a pivotal role in working with Activision’s world-class game studios and will report to the Manager, Studio Strategy and Operations. The role will focus on studios’ resource planning, operational excellence, rhythm of business coordination, business reviews, and other key projects. A great candidate will have the ability to build, analyze, and maintain large datasets to inform planning decisions, support strategic initiatives, and drive operational efficiencies. Furthermore, this role requires a candidate who is strong at synthesizing unstructured input, such as stakeholder discussions and meetings, into clear, usable data (i.e., estimating the cost of building a new Call of Duty map by having multiple discussions with game developers and producers). This position also requires extensive cross-group coordination at all levels, excellent communication skills (quantitative, written and verbal), and the ability to build internal/external relationships across the global franchise, as this team is positioned at the intersection of development studios (i.e., studio heads, executive producers, studio operations, etc.), corporate stakeholders (i.e., corporate finance, external business development, human resources, etc.), and executive leadership. We are looking for self-starters who can work in a rapidly changing gaming industry, tolerate ambiguity, and demonstrate problem-solving leadership with limited oversight.
