[https://app.ashbyhq.com/api/images/user-content/1246dead-d30e-4c70-a1d3-ef7e5023d542/7f85a950-18be-4443-8b5d-98f72d954b95/1770830171911.jpeg]

WE’RE LOOKING FOR A COMPETITIVE EXPERIENCE MANAGER TO TURN CLASH ROYALE INTO THE PLACE FOR SERIOUS SKILL AND SERIOUS HYPE. YOU’LL OWN THE VISION FOR COMPETITIVE ROYALE FROM IN-GAME SYSTEMS TO GLOBAL MOMENTS AND WORK ACROSS TEAMS TO BUILD AN ECOSYSTEM PLAYERS AND VIEWERS CAN’T IGNORE.

We're looking for a Competitive Experience Manager to shape the future of competitive play for Clash Royale. This isn't just about running tournaments – it's about building an ecosystem that makes Royale a destination for competitive players and viewers worldwide.

Royale has one of the deepest skill ceilings in mobile gaming and a passionate competitive community. We believe competitive play is core to our long-term success, not a side project. We're looking for someone who can own the vision for what competitive Royale should become, and then build it.

You'll report to the Marketing Lead and work closely with Game Design, Community, and Live Operations to ensure competitive play is woven into the fabric of the game. If you've ever felt that mobile esports doesn't get the respect it deserves and want to prove otherwise, this might be your role.

## WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

- Own the strategic vision for Clash Royale competitive play, including CRL and partner ecosystem
- Drive ecosystem development – from grassroots tournaments to global championships
- Build and maintain relationships with tournament organizers, broadcast partners, and competitive creators
- Collaborate with Game Design on competitive health, formats, and in-game integration
- Identify opportunities to grow the competitive audience and deepen player investment
- Manage operational partners while keeping focus on long-term ecosystem growth

## WHAT YOU HAVE

- 5+ years in esports, competitive gaming, or related entertainment roles
- Experience owning strategy, not just execution – you've shaped direction, not just followed it
- Strong understanding of competitive gaming ecosystems and what makes them thrive
- Excellent relationship-building skills with partners, creators, and internal stakeholders
- Ability to balance long-term vision with scrappy, fast execution
- Passion for competitive gaming and a player-first mentality
- A self-starter approach to use AI. You've found ways to use it in your day-to-day work, you experiment, figure things out and bring the same energy to every new challenge.
- Located in or willing to relocate to Helsinki.

## WOULD BE NICE IF YOU ALSO HAVE

- Experience with mobile esports specifically
- Background working with game development teams on competitive features
- Understanding of Clash Royale's competitive scene and community

## ABOUT SUPERCELL

Supercell is a games company from Helsinki, Finland, with offices https://supr.cl/jd-offices also in San Francisco, Seoul, Shanghai, and London.

Our mission is to create great games https://supr.cl/jd-games that as many people as possible play for years and that are remembered forever.

So, how do we make great games? By putting together the best teams and giving them the freedom and independence to succeed. And by taking risks, failing, sharing learnings https://supercell.com/en/news/learning-from-failures/, and killing lots of projects.

## YOU ARE NOT YOUR JOB TITLE ™

Here, you won’t need to focus on chasing titles https://supr.cl/jd-job-title or climbing ladders. Internally, our job titles don’t include prefixes like Senior, Junior, Principal, or Director. Recognition isn’t tied to your title, as it doesn't define the impact you can have around here.

## BENEFITS AND COMPENSATION

Luring you in with glitter, glamour, and gems isn't what we're about. We want you to enjoy your time here fully, so we structure our compensation and benefits https://supr.cl/jd-benefits with that in mind. It starts with perceiving you as a human being, not a resource.
