  • Strong understanding of the gaming and/or entertainment industry, its dynamics, trends, audience behaviors, and the realities faced by cross‑functional teams such as production, design, marketing, and publishing.
  • Proven ability to lead, mentor, and grow research teams, influence senior stakeholders, and drive strategic impact through clear communication, compelling storytelling, and methodological excellence.
  • Advanced skills in research design, analysis, and synthesis, with the ability to define robust approaches, maintain high analytical standards, and translate complex data into clear, actionable insights.
