User Acquisition Specialist
Marketing & Communications · Contractor,
London, UK
Posted on Sep 29, 2026
At Fenris, our vision is to build lasting and impactful virtual worlds. EVE Vanguard, our upcoming FPS set in the EVE universe, brings that vision to a new audience: we need players who can drop into the fight, connect with squadmates, compete for territory, and help Vanguard thrive as a long-term live game.
As part of the Marketing Growth team, the User Acquisition Specialist will support the execution and optimization of paid marketing campaigns that drive new player acquisition and re-engagement for EVE Vanguard. While Vanguard will be your primary focus, you'll also lend a hand across our wider portfolio, supporting UA campaigns and web journeys for other IPs when priorities call for it. Working closely with Publishing, Data, and Product teams, you'll help ensure our campaigns are data-driven, efficient, and continuously improving as we grow Vanguard's player base through launch and beyond.
This is a great opportunity for someone who loves working with data, testing new ideas, and seeing measurable impact on a brand-new title, while gaining exposure to some of the most iconic worlds in gaming.
