Halo Studios is the developer of the blockbuster Halo series of video games. As part of Xbox Game Studios, the Halo franchise encompasses games, television series, novels, comics, licensed collectibles, apparel and more. We are looking for talented new voices to join our team to build the next generation of games and experiences in our award-winning sci-fi universe. Do you want to closely collaborate with teams to drive inspiring, cohesive gameplay experiences?

If so, the Halo team would love to speak with you about becoming our next Franchise Business Manager! 

As a Halo Franchise Business Manager, you will be responsible for supporting the business management of out-of-game products and experiences for Halo Studios. This business manager’s job will run the gamut from supporting product ideation through developing business strategies for how players experience our games outside of their Xbox or PC. You will work directly with product leaders to develop product strategy, create business models, review / design contracts, manage budgets, formulate long-term product / financial plans, and ensure accountability to each team's contribution to franchise KPIs. This role requires deep modeling skills, solid strategic thinking, and the ability to work autonomously, jumping from strategy to execution and back again.  

Your unique blend of skills and passion could come from a broad range of disciplines: production, business development, business affairs, marketing, product planning or finance. Roles at our studio are flexible, and you can work from home up to two days a week in this role.
