Jobs digest: moves at Roblox, Scopely, Supercell, Playtika, King, Miniclip and more
This recurring jobs digest from mobilegamerbiz highlights recruitment moves across the mobile games industry. The featured announcements centre on Roblox, which has appointed Google and Amazon veteran John Ciancutti as its inaugural chief growth officer, signalling the company’s focus on accelerating expansion and strategic growth initiatives.
Ciancutti’s hiring is accompanied by a coordinated international leadership expansion. Roblox simultaneously appointed four regional general managers to oversee key markets: Joost Hagesteijn leading Europe, Sunil Rao managing India, Diego Dzodan overseeing Latin America, and Mohamed El Sheakh directing the Middle East, North Africa, and Türkiye region. This distributed leadership structure reflects Roblox’s prioritisation of geographical expansion and localised market development across major gaming regions.
While the digest references recruitment moves at other prominent publishers including Scopely, Supercell, Playtika, King, and Miniclip, the excerpt provided contains limited details on these appointments. These regular industry digests serve as indicators of leadership transitions and hiring trends within the competitive mobile games sector, offering insight into how major publishers are structuring their organisations for growth.
