• Share your knowledge and learnings as an expert on the game’s design, target audience, genre, and opportunity space with the broader product organization beyond the game team, to advance our collective knowledge.

What you'll need to be successful

• A holistic view of game systems, including the downstream effects of design decisions throughout both the product and player lifecycle, coupled with a strong understanding of fundamental design principles, metagame systems, game economies, and player psychology, to design from first principles.

• You will demonstrate deep insights and nuanced views on key differentiators, challenges, and opportunities within the game's design space.

• Strong ability to connect design decisions with product goals and player motivations, ensuring alignment and coherence in the overall game design. 

• Ability to partner with designers and product managers, and cross-functional groups including engineering, art, and production. 

• Ability to synthesize feedback from team members, user playtests, and other validation efforts into product insights and rapidly iterate on designs.

• Ability to articulate the nuances of abstract concepts and how they apply to complex, interrelated systems.

• A well-structured communication style that allows for clear and effective articulation of design ideas and concepts.

• Extensive knowledge of games as a service and live operations – you know what good looks like and can build efficient design processes, workflows, and tooling to enable it.  

• Enthusiasm for mentoring and elevating the people around you to do their best work.  

• A natural curiosity and eagerness to learn - we believe this is essential to our ability to stay ahead of the market and value this over years of experience.

We expect senior talent to continue being students of their craft and the game spaces they’re working in. You should be educated on the latest trends and have a strong perspective on how they relate to our current and future projects.

In addition to underwriting individual development projects, the role will support the enhancement of Soho House’s development underwriting standards and methodologies, strengthening capital discipline, improving decision‑making quality and supporting a scalable, repeatable acquisition and development process as the business continues to grow.

The remaining 20% of the role provides broader support to the Executive Strategy Director on Executive-level, cross-functional priorities, materials, and ad hoc strategic analysis, providing the role with a holistic view into the Company’s priorities.

This is an ideal role for someone with a strong finance or investment background who wants to deepen their expertise in development finance and learn about the many facets of running a fast-moving, brand-led global business, with direct exposure to senior leadership and Board-level decision-making.

• Ensure models are accurate, well-structured and auditable, built to a standard that can be presented to senior leadership and the Board.
• Update models as deal terms, operational assumptions or market conditions evolve throughout the development process.
• Support post-opening performance reviews, comparing actual outcomes against underwriting assumptions and identifying key variances and learnings to feed back into future models.

Underwriting Decks & Investment Materials

• Own the end-to-end preparation of underwriting decks and investment papers, translating financial model outputs into clear, compelling narratives for senior leadership and the Board.
• Prepare supporting materials for development pipeline reviews, including summary outputs, one-pagers and scenario comparison slides.

Pipeline Coordination & Cross-Team Input

• Coordinate the collection of assumptions and inputs from Development, Legal, Operations and FP&A, sourcing, consolidating and quality-checking information from across the business.
• Hold cross-functional stakeholders accountable for delivering their inputs on time, escalating delays to the Executive Strategy Director as needed.
• Maintain the development pipeline tracker, keeping all active opportunities up to date and accurately reflected.
• Manage the cadence of underwriting-related meetings, preparing agendas, pre-reads and follow-up actions to keep workstreams moving efficiently.

Thought Partnership & Analysis

• Actively contribute ideas, challenge assumptions and offer analytical perspectives — this is not a passive support role, but one that expects genuine intellectual engagement.
• Identify patterns, inconsistencies or opportunities in data and models, surfacing these proactively to the Director.
• Support the evaluation of alternative scenarios, phasing options and strategic trade-offs, helping the Director stress-test recommendations before they go to senior leadership.

Strategic & Executive Support

• Provide analytical and presentation support to the Executive Strategy Director on ad hoc strategic priorities, executive materials and cross-functional projects as they arise.
• Conduct research, benchmarking and data analysis to inform recommendations, pulling together information from internal and external sources into clear, structured outputs.
• Support the preparation of board materials, leadership briefings and strategic reviews as required, owning first-draft production and iterating based on feedback.
