Job Description

Who we are

Big Potato’s purpose is to Light Up the Moments We Spend Together. Our games are easy-to-learn, laughter-first games that are played by millions of people around the world. Despite being better connected than ever before, quality time together is increasingly rare. Our games bring people together in a way only a good game can.

We have a team that’s ambitious, creative and committed to making brilliant games and shaking things up in the category. And we believe in doing it the right way. We’re bothered about our People, our Customers, our Consumers and the Planet. We’re B-Corp Certified and consistently achieve high Great scores in our employee NPS surveys.

We’re one of the UK’s fastest-growing games companies, and as we scale globally we’re rebuilding our finance and operational infrastructure from the ground up, moving away from legacy ERP systems toward a modern, modular, AI-enabled stack.
