**Senior Business Development Role for Steam Team**
Drive business growth and platform innovation for Steam, Valve's global gaming hub. Key responsibilities include partnering with external stakeholders, driving platform feature enhancements, and orchestrating promotions to engage millions of players worldwide. Essential skills are strong business acumen, cross-functional collaboration, and data-driven decision making. Requires 5+ years in business development, preferably in the gaming or tech industry, with proven expertise in partnership management and platform strategy. Keys to success: adaptability, independence, and an entrepreneurial spirit. Familiarity with relevant platforms like Steam, Unity, and relevant analytic tools is a plus. Join a dynamic team that thrives on autonomy and helps shape the gaming landscape.
We’re always looking to add talented individuals to our team. The Steam Business team runs our platform and storefront, directly impacting millions of players worldwide and ensuring that it remains the best place for our partners to sell their games and for customers to buy and play them! The Steam Business team works on a blend of business development, platform feature innovation, and marketing by collaborating with various teams across Valve and partners around the world. They support new and existing Steam partners, design and launch new Steam features and tools, and develop and market sale events and other promotions. The group tackles complicated regulatory problems, writes documentation and tutorial materials, negotiates contracts, and helps Steam grow in new territories. This team thrives working independently and without management. Like any team at Valve, members are always seeking out new and exciting projects depending on their areas of expertise and interest, while doing the day-to-day work of running Steam. Some members on the team are crafting our seasonal sales events, while others ramp up our PC cafe program, run data analysis on the impact of new platform features, or design and build new features with our dev team. While most of our team members have previous experience in the games industry working with external partners and end-users, we’re always looking for fresh perspectives. Because we work at the intersection of platform, partners, and customers, there's a constant flow of exciting and impactful work! Like most roles at Valve, we don't have headcount targets, we aren’t actively looking to fill an open position, and we don’t generally require specific credentials or qualifications. We’re just always looking for great people to hire. Intrigued?
