Job Description

Per Supercell's mission statement, “to create games for as many people as possible that are played for years and remembered forever,” we want to create games that people play and remember for years. Every day, an astounding (and growing) number of players play Supercell's games: Brawl Stars, Clash of Clans, Clash Royale, Squad Busters, MoCo (and more) and the marketing artist’s role is to ensure we continue to engage and enrich our current players and encourage new players to join in on this journey.

To make these six live games, we've killed dozens along the way. That's because we're obsessed with quality. Meeting the quality bar is extremely important to achieve our goal, which is to make the best games that are played by millions, enjoyed for years, and remembered forever. We reach our players across the globe with engaging experiences of our games, delivering marketing initiatives that transcend the digital platform. Such an approach requires everyone on a team to play multiple roles, and Marketing Artist: Senior Illustrator at Supercell is not an exception.

Our APAC regional office is now looking for Marketing Artist, Senior Illustrator with an intrinsic understanding of visual storytelling, IP, and art style who will create a wide range of creatives with a focus on high-quality illustrations, character artworks, and visual style development to enhance and build Supercell games’ lore and universe to better connect and interact with our players.

About the Role:

As our Marketing Artist: Senior Illustrator with a focus on visual storytelling, you will play a core role in the marketing art team that plans and creates many forms of creatives for in-game and out-of-game use to showcase our games, their characters, worlds, and stories to millions of current and future players.

Our ideal candidate has technical expertise, enjoys drawing and painting, and also relishes managing external partners and providing guidance and insight. We seek someone with a wide-ranging understanding of everyday social fabric — from pop culture to gaming culture and various fandoms (K-Pop, J-Pop, fashion, manga/anime, etc.) — and the ability to create work that resonates with millions of players across APAC and beyond.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop and nurture a clear artistic vision for marketing creatives, including character illustrations and 2D animations.
  • Be an integral part of the Marketing art team and work closely with internal teams and external partners.
  • Participate in evaluating, selecting, and managing external creative partners: creative agencies, animation studios, and freelance artists.
  • Create sketches, concept art, and illustrations to visualize project vision and provide draw-over and paint-over guidance to partners.
  • Ensure all produced work is world-class in quality and authentic to Supercell game worlds, supporting long-term IP longevity.

Requirements:

  • 5–10 years of experience in a similar role, developing artistic vision and physical creatives (sketches, concept art, illustrations) for marketing campaigns and/or creating in-game assets.
  • Experience working on multiple projects simultaneously and communicating across teams (art, marketing, game teams).
  • Open-mindedness and willingness to tackle various art styles and illustration formats.
  • Extensive experience with digital illustration of stylized characters; advanced knowledge of Adobe Photoshop (or Illustrator) and other digital painting tools.
  • Experience giving detailed art feedback and communicating direction between internal teams and external partners.
  • Strong understanding of character design, expressions, poses, and anatomy.
  • Passion for world-building and character development.
  • Knowledge and experience with 2D & 3D animation is a definite plus.
  • Ability to work independently with minimum supervision.
  • Proficient verbal, written, and interpersonal communication skills in English.
  • Must be able to travel to Europe, U.S., China, or Japan multiple times a year.
  • An online portfolio/website is required and must be included with the application.
