for an Indie Studio (Game Overmind)

Hello! We are the indie studio Next Genium, and we're looking for a PR Manager to work on our flagship project – the cosmic survival horror game Overmind. We need someone who will become the voice of the game, professionally communicate with the audience, and help build a systematic approach to community work. Experience in game development is not required; insight and a desire to understand the product are much more important.

Who we are looking for: We are open to considering candidates with various levels of experience.

• Beginners: If you've been following the indie scene for a long time, run your own blog, or simply 'live' in gaming communities – come join us, we'll teach you everything else.
• Experienced Specialists: If you have successful cases in game development or related fields – we'd be happy to discuss an extended pool of tasks and individual payment terms.

Responsibilities:

• Direct communication with Overmind players on VK, Telegram, and Discord (moderation, feedback, maintaining atmosphere).
• Writing texts for various tasks: press releases, development diaries, announcements, social media news.
• Interaction with gaming media, bloggers, and streamers (finding contacts, preparing materials, outreach).
• Creating content for social media (adapting news to the format of posts, reels, stories).
• Systematizing player feedback and relaying it to the team.
• Monitoring the information landscape and analyzing the effectiveness of PR activities.

What we expect:

• Understanding of the specifics of indie games and the interests of their audience.
• Fluent spoken and written Russian, ability to formulate thoughts clearly and engagingly.
• Experience managing social media (personal blog, community, thematic channel – it doesn't matter, the main thing is understanding the processes).
• Developed communication skills, willingness and desire to interact with people.
• Responsible approach to tasks and time management: we work in a task tracker with regular reporting.

Work Conditions:

Fully remote work. Flexible schedule, oriented towards Moscow time.

• Employment Options:
  • Full-time (7.5 hours, up to 37.5 per week).
  • Part-time (4 hours, from 20 per week).
• Income Level:
  • For junior specialists (full-time): from 40,000 rubles net. Monthly income increase is planned during the probation period.
  • For experienced specialists (full-time): individual, discussed after the interview. Range – up to 120,000 rubles, depending on competencies and scope of responsibility.
• Prospects: KPI system for salary review with an increase, long-term cooperation, the opportunity to directly influence project development.
• Contract: Service contract (GPH), self-employed, or sole proprietorship (IP).
