Become OMG’s Sponsorship Manager!
Every member of OMG's leadership team is a volunteer who works professionally in the games industry. We also provide our time for free, volunteering on the OMG Leadership Team, in order to make the games industry (and the world) a safer, more welcoming, better-educated place for everyone under the LGBTQ+ rainbow.
We've got even bigger plans for 2024, but need to increase our sponsorship to facilitate them.
We are therefore looking for an experienced sponsorship manager to join our leadership team to help us grow this area of OMG, and to continue looking after the wonderful sponsors we already have - they really are AWESOME!
We'd love to see applicants from across the LGBTQ+ rainbow and would especially encourage people from marginalised backgrounds to apply - all you need is a passion for LGBTQ+ rights and visibility.
What would I be doing?
We want you to bring your sponsorship passion and expertise to help grow our sponsorship pool, nationally and internationally, so we can continue to support the LGBTQ+ community in the UK, and increasingly internationally.
We already have members in the community based around the globe, and we plan to expand our presence officially into Europe, this year.
Who are OMG’s current sponsors?
We are fortunate enough to be sponsored by four brilliant, high-profile, UK-based studios. These are:
Supermassive Games
Rocksteady Games
Mojiworks
nDreams
The wonderful people at these studios facilitate all of OMG’s work in games and for the LGBTQ+ community.
What is the time commitment?
Roughly 2 hours per week on average. This includes:
1 x 1 hour committee meeting per month
1 x 1 hour working group meeting per fortnight (depending on what area you’re working in)
1 x 1 hour per week for any additional work (e.g. writing documentation, contacting potential sponsors, etc)
We also expect OMG Committee Members to attend OMG events wherever possible. In-person events are rarely more than once a quarter and would depend on geographical location - if you live in Scotland, we wouldn’t expect you to make it down to Brighton for a Develop event, for example!
What is the committee like?
There are currently 9 of us from across the industry including programmers, producers, lawyers, executive search, game designers and business owners. Collectively we have experience across AAA, indie, mobile, PC, console, giant multinational companies to single-person indie businesses.
We make decisions together but have a few roles to provide structure. These are voted on at the beginning of each year and anyone in the committee is able to nominate themselves.
