VP, Digital Ventures

At Wizards of the Coast, we connect people around the world through play and imagination. From our genre-defining games like Magic: The Gathering® and Dungeons & Dragons® to our growing multiverse, we continue to innovate and build new ways to foster friendship and connection. That’s where you come in!

With successful digital game studios now operating for Magic: The Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons, Wizards of the Coast is evolving what was formerly known as the Digital Games organization into a bold new entity: Wizards Digital Ventures.

Wizards Digital Ventures is a creative launchpad—our internal incubator for bold, genre-defining video game experiences built on both original IP, like Exodus, and iconic Hasbro brands, including Transformers and G.I. Joe. Its mission: to build the next great franchise in digital games and expand Hasbro’s presence in the interactive entertainment space.

We are seeking an experienced and visionary Vice President of Wizards Digital Ventures to lead this newly formed organization. Reporting to the President of Wizards of the Coast, this executive will be responsible for the strategy, creative direction, and execution of original and franchise-based video game development initiatives—from early concept incubation to live game operation.

This is a rare opportunity to chart the course of entirely new worlds—and reimagine beloved ones—for the next generation of players.

• Drive operational excellence: Establish scalable production frameworks, resource plans, and development pipelines that balance creative ambition with executional rigor. Ensure all projects remain within budgetary and scheduling constraints while achieving the highest standards of quality.
• Creative Leadership: Foster a culture of innovation, experimentation, and bold creativity—focused on building high-impact games with lasting player appeal.
• Talent Building: Identify and nurture top-tier creative and production talent, both internally and through external development partnerships.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with teams across Hasbro to ensure brand integrity, player relevance, and go-to-market readiness.
• Portfolio Oversight: Manage a slate of projects at various stages, balancing creative ambition with commercial viability.
• Industry Awareness: Stay ahead of trends in gaming, player behavior, platforms, and technologies to inform product strategy and innovation.

What You'll Bring:

• A proven track record of successfully bringing new video game concepts to market, ideally in leadership roles at top-tier game companies or studios.
• Experience building or leading internal incubation efforts or new IP development within the games industry.
• Demonstrated success finding and fostering emerging talent across creative, design, and production disciplines.
• Familiarity with both original IP creation and working with licensed or franchise-based content.
• Strong creative sensibility paired with operational and commercial discipline.
• Experience working in highly collaborative environments, particularly with marketing, brand, and product development teams.
• Deep knowledge of the video game market and evolving trends across platforms, genres, and player demographics.
