Jobs digest: big moves at Jam City, Scopely, Niantic, Netflix, Activision, Supercell and more
Jam City’s co-founder and CEO Joshua Yguado is stepping down after 16 years of leadership at the mobile gaming developer. He will be succeeded by Chul-min Sim, who previously held the position of CEO at Netmarble’s US operations. Notably, Sim is currently serving as CEO of Kabam, a position he has maintained for the past three years, and will continue in that role while taking the helm at Jam City. This dual leadership arrangement underscores the complex executive structures increasingly common in the mobile gaming industry. The move is part of a broader pattern of leadership transitions covered in this jobs digest, which also includes recruitment updates from major studios including Scopely, Niantic, Netflix’s gaming division, Activision, and Supercell. These shifts reflect the competitive market for experienced gaming executives and the ongoing consolidation within the industry.
