Partnerships & Campaign Specialist

About GAMURS Group

GAMURS Group is one of the largest independent gaming and entertainment media networks in the world. We own and operate 14 publications — including Destructoid, Pro Game Guides, Twin finite, Silicon era, We Got This Covered, and The Mary Sue — reaching 30 million monthly readers. Our GAMURS Pulse first‑party data platform lets brand partners reach precisely defined gaming audience segments, from cozy gamers to esports fans to lapsed franchise players.

We work with game publishers, peripheral brands, and entertainment companies to build campaigns that reach the right players at the right moment — through custom editorial, display, newsletters, social, and video. With a diverse team spread across the globe, we run a dynamic, 24/7 operation that is continuously expanding through smart strategic acquisitions. We work hard, but we also believe in rewarding our people.

When you join GAMURS, you step into a young, rapidly growing company that offers unlimited paid leave, flexible work environments, and generous bonus/benefits packages.

This is a dual‑function position sitting at the intersection of business development and campaign execution. You will spend roughly half your time identifying and approaching new partners, and half your time ensuring that active campaigns run smoothly from kickoff to final report.

The common thread between both sides of the role is a genuine, deep understanding of video games and gaming culture. You need to know genres, franchises, and audiences well enough to spot a fit before a client does — and to manage campaigns that speak to those audiences credibly.

You will be the first point of contact for a significant number of new partner relationships. Your job is to identify game publishers and brands whose audience needs match what GAMURS Group can deliver, and to open conversations that the sales team can develop into partnerships.

• Prospect and research game publishers, peripheral brands, and entertainment companies that are a strong fit for GAMURS’ audiences
• Build targeted outreach using GAMURS Pulse audience data — for example, identifying that we reach  active RPG players monthly and connecting that to a publisher with an RPG in development
• Write and send personalized outreach emails that lead with a relevant audience insight rather than a generic pitch
• Follow up with supporting data, site overviews, and audience profiles to move prospects toward a call or meeting
• Stay current on game release calendars, genre trends, and publisher activity so you can anticipate who needs to reach our audiences before they come to us
• Hand off warm prospects to the Sales Director with clear context on the conversation to date

Once the commercial team closes a campaign, you are responsible for making sure it goes live, runs as planned, and is flagged promptly if anything is off. This is not a passive role — good campaign managers catch problems before the client notices them.

• Manage the end‑to‑end campaign lifecycle from signed IO to final delivery report
• Coordinate with editorial, ad ops, and social teams to ensure all campaign elements are trafficked and live on schedule
• Monitor active campaigns across multiple dashboards, tracking pacing, delivery, and performance against KPIs
• Proactively flag delivery issues early — if a campaign is pacing slowly two weeks before the end date, raise it then, not on the last day
• Communicate campaign status clearly and regularly to both internal stakeholders and clients
• Compile end‑of‑campaign wrap reports with performance data and clear commentary on results
• Identify opportunities to optimize mid‑flight where possible

• A genuine, working knowledge of video games — genres, major franchises, platform differences, and gaming culture. This is not a 'nice to have.' You need to understand why a factory sim attracts a different audience than a competitive FPS, and what that means for who we pitch.
• 3-5 years experience in a sales development, partnerships, or account management role, ideally in digital media or gaming
• Comfort with outbound…
