Content Creator

We’re looking for a Content Creator to join our award winning team in Middlesbrough (UK), home to the beautiful North Yorkshire coastline and countryside. 

As a Content Creator at Double Eleven, you will be responsible for producing engaging, high-quality video content that showcases our games and excites our audience. Your primary focus will be on creating game update videos, gameplay showcases, live stream productions, and promotional assets that resonate with players and align with marketing objectives. Collaborating closely with game developers, publishers, marketing teams and community managers, you’ll have a unique opportunity to ensure each piece of content reflects the game's identity and captivates viewers.

Your expertise in video production, in-game footage capture and cinematography will drive the creation of visually stunning narratives. While you'll be capable of independently managing projects from concept to completion, you will also coordinate with external partners for larger, one-off productions to achieve the highest quality outcomes. Additionally, you will play a key role in live stream event production, from technical setup to post-event content repurposing.

On occasion, you’ll work irregular hours as live streams and other marketing activities need to be in line with US West-East coast evenings.

As a global gaming company, we've enabled millions to conquer Minecraft Dungeons, battle in Rust Console Edition and create new adventures in Fallout 76. Recently, we collaborated with Rockstar Games to bring Red Dead Redemption to the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 as well as partnered with Obsidian Entertainment on Grounded: Fully Yoked Edition for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 and 5.  

Double Eleven is a place where our people come first. Our 400-person team proudly represents over 30 nationalities. We strive to avoid crunch, we offer flexible working hours to allow you to truly enjoy work/life balance whilst making great games and any overtime is always planned, optional and paid. 

We can support relocation for people already living in the UK to our Middlesbrough office.

Interested? We kindly ask all applicants to submit a portfolio to support their application. We’re afraid applications without an accompanying portfolio will not be considered and  on this occasion, we’re unable to sponsor a visa for this role.

Stage One: A discipline specific skills assessment
