Ludeon Studios seeks an assistant to support our director Tynan Sylvester and the broader team in a wide variety of organizational, administrative, and other tasks.

Ludeon is a very small company doing very complex creative business across many international borders. An assistant will be involved in many aspects of our work including creative development, business negotiations, legal, travel, marketing, PR, game communities and more.

A successful candidate will be comfortable with adapting to new challenges and learning new skills. He or she will proactively solve problems with minimal direction and make intelligent judgments in ambiguous situations. Attention to detail, professionalism, and discretion in handling confidential information are critical.

Tasks will include:

• Researching events, businesses, locations, and people to help with decision-making
• Helping find and contact potential new team members
• Managing hiring applications
• Organizing events ranging from small online gaming nights to international meet-ups
• Managing email

There's a tremendous breadth of things to do and a lot of room to grow into. The person in this position will have a lot of opportunities to grow and learn.

Knowledge and experience in games or the game industry are essential.

This position won’t require crunch in the sense of extra-long hours. However, unlike most of Ludeon’s work roles, the executive assistant may be required to work at specific times.

You must reside in Montreal, Canada for this role.
