Project Manager Project managers ensure that a game is completed on time, within budget, and using the right resources. Prior to production they analyse game design specification and work out milestones, schedules, equipment and teams. They control financial resources and negotiate all contracts with suppliers and contractors. They may also oversee ongoing maintenance issues after launch. This is an increasingly important role as production schedules lengthen and development costs increase. Project managers are employed by development studios and publisher’s in-house development teams.
Malmö, Sweden Malmö is the capital and largest city of the Swedish county of Scania. The Malmö Metropolitan Region is home to 700,000 people. Malmö has undergone a major transformation with architectural developments, and it has attracted new biotech and IT companies, and particularly students through Malmö University, founded in 1998. The city contains many historic buildings and parks, and is also a commercial centre for the western part of Scania. In Sweden’s third-biggest city, games are something that are taken seriously. Massive Entertainment, part of Ubisoft has well and truly put Malmö onto the map.
