Mojang Studios Operations Contracts Manager
At Mojang Studios, the creators of Minecraft, we are on a mission to build a better world through the power of play.
Why play? Well, play is at the heart of everything we do. It’s the blocky backbone of our games, the core of our development philosophy, and even the origin of our name. From the relentless experimentation of our endlessly inspiring community to the classrooms where Minecraft has become an essential teaching tool, play is the bedrock of our existence.
We enable millions to create and play together, connect people across the globe, and foster a community that is among the most active and passionate in the world. Our community is global and incredibly diverse. When we are developing anything within our franchise, we keep this in mind. We want everyone to not only feel included in Minecraft, but also to see themselves in what we make. Our goal is for the Mojang Studios team to be as diverse as our community.
The Minecraft Business Operations team is the primary team supporting Mojang Studios operations and the COO. Within this Redmond-based team, we establish and manage partnerships which bring external resources, tools, and services into the studio’s ecosystem. These partnerships cover a wide scope, including studio-wide external development support, cloud orders, and software.
As an Operations Contracts Manager, you will be responsible for supporting our franchise’s business growth through identifying external partners for our various operational needs. You will draft and negotiate agreements, manage the deal lifecycle process, and manage the partner relationship. You will be responsible for contributing to process improvements, documenting best practices, and maintaining key tools for the team.
