We want you to #JOINTHEREBELLION!
For 30 years we’ve been independently developing and publishing incredible video games at our multiple studios founded by Jason & Chris Kingsley, but Rebellion is more than just games. We have our own film studio, we create board games, publish books, and through 2000AD, publish comics and graphic novels such as the amazing Judge Dredd.
We're looking for an experienced and commercially-focused People Business Partner to join our People & Talent team.
In this role you will work closely with leaders across your business areas, acting as a trusted advisor on all people-related matters. You will help deliver both people and business strategies, providing expert guidance, coaching, and practical HR solutions that support high-performing teams and a positive employee experience.
This is an opportunity to play a key role in shaping our people agenda, influencing leaders, and creating an environment where both employees and the business can thrive.
This role is based at our riverside headquarters in Oxford, offering a creative and relaxed atmosphere where teamwork drives our success. We can provide a relocation package, including moving assistance, temporary accommodation, and full support to ensure a smooth transition to your new environment.
We believe in the power of face-to-face collaboration and encourage working from our studios. However, we understand that flexibility matters, so we’re open to discussing hybrid options based on individual needs.
