As a Market Intelligence Analyst, you will help Lion Studios to identify opportunities in the mobile games market and turn market signals into practical recommendations. You will track competitor launches and releases, analyse product and growth strategies, and identify underserved or fast-growing areas that could shape Lion’s pipeline and growth.
This is a hands-on, cross-functional role working closely with partner studios, studio management, game designers, product stakeholders, and the creative team. You will contribute from early-stage ideation through execution, using research and critical thinking to help teams make stronger product decisions.
You will thrive in this role if you combine strong game design judgement with an entrepreneurial mindset, can work autonomously, and enjoy moving from analysis to clear, actionable ideas.
