At Old Skull Games, we create games built around strong gameplay, sharp game feel, and meaningful player experiences.
We believe great games are meant to be played, shared, and talked about — whether that’s through tight multiplayer moments with friends, or deeper single-player experiences that resonate with more engaged players.
Today, the studio is evolving:
Continuing to build high-energy multiplayer experiences, while also developing more ambitious, gameplay-driven titles
Working on recognized IPs alongside original creations
Raising the bar on both creative ambition and production quality
We are a 60+ people studio based in Lyon, collaborating with leading industry partners and building the next generation of our games.
Why is this role different ?
This is not a “plug-and-play” business role.
We are intentionally open on seniority, from strong mid-level to experienced senior, because what matters most to us is the person, the mindset, and the ambition.
Depending on your profile:
- You might own deals end-to-end and drive the commercial strategy of the company
- Or start with a strong focus on deal execution and progressively take ownership of strategy, partner portfolio, and long-term positioning of the studio
- Or work closely with the CEO (whose original background is in business development) to progressively expand your scope
We will shape the role around the right person.
What you’ll work on
- Identify and develop new business opportunities (publishers, platforms, IP holders)
- Build and nurture long-term partnerships, this is key to OSG vision.
- Drive our pitching efforts and present our projects with clarity and conviction

- Contribute to long-term studio growth and positioning

- You show initiative, you don’t wait to be told what to do
