GW is trying to smooth out the 10th Edition schedule as they are hiring an Emperor, er director of Warhammer 40k new releases.
Right before 10th Edition launched, GW hired a new trade support manager for the US, but it appears they need a little more to keep all the new releases running smoothly. We’re not sure if this is something new or if they are replacing the current person.
Either way, this sounds like a super pivotal job in the company. The person they hire will keep 40k on track for this edition and pump out the releases.
You would be working out of Nottingham, UK (where their headquarters is). This is where all their main jobs are; let’s see what they are looking for!
