Can you paint Warhammer miniatures to a competition-winning standard? Can you demonstrate advanced painting techniques, and explain them in a clear manner? Can you present confidently in front of a camera and a live audience?

We’re looking for world-class, competition-winning painters to join our Digital & Community Painting Team. Day-to-day, you’ll work with the Warhammer TV team to make amazing pre-recorded videos that show people the techniques and methods needed to take their painting to the highest levels.

You’ll come up with painting plans, gather the resources you need, and work with the filming team to create the best possible painting tutorials. You’ll be an expert in the Citadel painting system and working with the TV team, you’ll develop an interesting and engaging presenting style.

You will also be asked to present live on Warhammer TV and get to be involved in Warhammer Community’s various painting and modeling projects.

Being a face of Games Workshop is hard. You will always be ‘on’. No matter the subject matter or forum, you must cheerfully communicate with our loyal customer base. To be successful, you will need endless enthusiasm for Warhammer and the Games Workshop hobby.

If this sounds like an exciting career, then we can’t wait to hear from you!

They really lay it all out there for you and pretty much what you’d expect. We expect this one to be highly contested, so get your best work ready to show off and apply here!
