Director of Marketing, Minecraft Entertainment

Position: Director of Marketing, Minecraft Entertainment & Experiences
Overview

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.

Minecraft is scaling as a global creative game and entertainment franchise spanning film, series, theme parks, and location-based experiences. This Director-level role leads end-to-end brand management and marketing for the Entertainment & Experiences pillar - owning how every property and experience is positioned, launched, and amplified to expand the franchise, deepen fan and player love, and grow long-term ecosystem impact.

The role is the accountable brand and marketing owner across the pillar - setting long-range marketing strategy, leading a multi-disciplinary team, working with studio and production partners (producers, show runners, creative leads, operators, licensees, agencies), and orchestrating execution across business, product, creative, integrated marketing, and regional teams.

In the end, it's the people of Mojang Studios that make this place truly special. When you join, you'll find yourself in the company of incredibly bright, warm, and creative individuals - all united and working toward a single goal. Come help us reach it!

Responsibilities

Lead End-to-End Brand Management and Marketing Across the Pillar

Serve as the senior brand and marketing owner across the full portfolio - films, series, theme park lands, and location-based and live experiences - ensuring each is positioned, launched, and managed to a single franchise standard from greenlight through long-tail. Set and hold the brand bar across creative, narrative, talent, partner, and experiential execution.

Set Long-Range Global & Regional Strategy

Translate franchise brand strategy into a 1-3-5 year global and regional marketing roadmap for Entertainment & Experiences, clarifying the role of each format in expanding the Minecraft universe, reaching new audiences, and unlocking priority markets. Define the audience promise, positioning, and brand narrative so storytelling across content and experiences ladders to one franchise vision and flexes to land in-market.

Lead Brand Marketing for Tentpole Launches & Always-On Moments

Own brand strategy, GTM frameworks, creative briefs, and launch playbooks for theatrical, episodic, park, and live moments - grounded in traditional and modern marketing across digital, social, creator and UGC, and earned channels.

Grow the Connected Minecraft Universe

Build & Scale New Operating Model and Capabilities

Build the org, capabilities, and ways of working needed to scale globally and regionally.

Lead, Build & Develop a Lean Team
