Senior Character Artist – Outsourcing

Responsibilities:

• Act as the artistic and technical point of contact for outsourcing partners, running day-to-day communication across stage-gated deliveries.
• Review every delivery and give clear, actionable technical feedback, paint-overs and annotated screenshots included. Make sure that feedback carries across assets instead of being re-issued round after round.
• Be the technical sign-off gate. You approve each stage before the next one starts, from block-out through high poly, low poly and UVs, textures and final package.

Requirements:

• 5+ years in character art for games, with at least one shipped title.
• Direct experience of outsourcing, from either side of the table. Time at or with an external development partner is a real advantage here.
• A strong portfolio of realistic, game-ready characters.
• Expert knowledge of ZBrush, Substance Painter and Maya, plus a solid grasp of 3ds Max, PBR and layered, mask-driven material workflows.

Benefits:

• Global, remote team with 25 days holiday inclusive of bank holidays.
• EMI Stock Options and healthcare.
• More to come.
