Art Director

It’s an exciting time to join Tactile. We're a diverse team of storytellers, puzzle enthusiasts and casual mobile game creators. Our story began in 2008 in the heart of beautiful Copenhagen, and since then we have experienced continuous growth, establishing ourselves as one of the largest gaming companies in Denmark. In more recent years, we have been scaling fast, in big part thanks to the success of a little game called Lily’s Garden. Now we’re on a mission to solidify our position as one of the leaders in creating out-of-the-ordinary casual puzzle games.

With more than 300 talented individuals, we are a mix of over 40 nationalities and 43% women. We truly appreciate the richness of different experiences and perspectives that Tactilers bring to the game. This is why we foster a lean organisational culture, in which each individual is encouraged to take responsibility, be open and grow in their own way. We pride ourselves in cultivating a studio environment that stays away from crunch, that fosters your skills no matter what your discipline is, and one that gives you a place to be creative alongside other passionate and invested storytellers.

🚀 Your role & impact:
We are currently growing our Art team and are on the search for an Art Director to lead the visual design and direction of our games. This role is based in our beautiful Copenhagen office, as we truly believe that when talented people work closely together, amazing things happen!

• Manage a team of artists and ensure that all artwork is delivered on time and within budget.
• Create concept art, storyboards, and other visual aids to communicate and iterate on game designs.
• Stay up-to-date on emerging trends and technologies in mobile game art, and apply them to our games as appropriate.

What we’re looking for:

• Extensive experience in game art or related industry
• Strong portfolio showcasing your expertise in mobile game art, with a focus on character and environment design
