Daniel Matros Application: Producer

Is this you? If so, we should work together and make great things happen.

Disruptive. If you like to do things the way they've always been done then you and I won't agree on a lot of matters. If you're innovative an forward we'll become best friends.

Ambitious. You know what it takes to succeed as you have consistently exceeded targets from day 1. You never give up and you inspire others with the same confidence as you have.

Problem Solver. You think in every angle possible. Instead of looking at the problem, you dive in and solve it headfirst and come u with great solutions while you invovle others.

When I work, I give 100%.

Why?

To win a client brief, requires a team.

To deliver outstanding work time and time again, requires a solid team.

and last but not least, co-workers also make great friends for life!

Daniel Matros Application: Producer

If you would like the idea of not having a regular 9-5 job we’re going to be great together!

My type of work environment consists of positive energy. That kind of positive energy that makes you feel like you and your team can connect, solve and win over any problem thrown at you. Add Curiosity where there studio doesn't shy away from over-the-top ideas and high ambitions. Experimenting with new tech shouldn't be strange but seen as a way to innovate and establish new designs with clients and other studios in the network.

To me, work is important. So is free time. What we do outside of work, whether we travel or chill with friends is an "enabler". It allows you to come back, recharged and ready to take on new challenges day in and day out.

All this happiness and creativity doesn't come out of nowhere though. My type of employer really takes care of their people. That's how my management style works as well. I am kind and educational, but don't have a problem with being decisive and delegating measurable milestones to my peers.

I would like for me to be taken care of together with my co-workers. Home office hours sometimes, celebrating milestones, a positive aura where people support each other and a studio leadership that believes and educates their staff, invests in them and makes sure they have everything they need to succeed is key to me.

Creativity breeds Curiosity

Take care of your people!

From how the market replies and grows, to how it affects your Product and to understand it fully. Leading teams with varying disciplines through projects while handling a development budget. Managing the agency’s and the clients vision of reality and delivering on key KPI’s.

This is a mindset I am well versed in having worked at a global level at EA and DICE for several years as a Producer and Product owner of said team from working with innovative ideas. I’ve driven projects from conceptualization to development and rollout. My roles have all required a blend of business and creative as well as project management. I’ve served as internal/external liaison between client and dev teams offsite and onsite, client and marketing team as well as having won awards with my teams for the products we have been rolling out.

Internally and externally, as a Producer, I remained in daily contact with all my key stakeholders such as Creative Teams, Financial, Studio Management as well as Audio.

\ Producer with a 360 Mindset

I’m great with people. I know how to motivate them, deliver on time and make people feel appreciated.

I’m very creative. Having played games since I was a child, it has given me a unique skill set of problem solving problems and coming up with solutions. Cognitive 2.0 :)

I live an active lifestyle outside of work because it enables me to be creative. I’m good with languages and cultures. I travel everywhere and speak 4-5 languages fluently and have a great of learning and seeing more of the - world and people.

\ What makes me a good Producer?

Daniel Matros Hammarby Alle 36,12061 Stockholm

“Disruptive” to me means always staying relevant and innovative

\ Why should you hire me?

I have the skills and experiences you are looking for and I’m confident that I would be a great addition for this role. It’s not just my unique background and great set of cognitive skills or my people skills that have helped me develop great relationships with vendors developers and senior managers alike but also because I am very passionate about this industry and I always strive to deliver high quality work mainly by being curious and a go- getter.

\ Why TBWA\RAAD?

I’ve never liked thinking inside of the box. Neither have you. I don’t like things that are static and mainstream. Neither do you. You like to think Disruptive is positive. So do I.

Most importantly, we both agree that open source has brought about an abundance of fresh ideas which makes companies having to adapt to stay relevant and progressive. This is where innovation comes in.

What I mostly like about TBWA/RAAD is that you chose a key word that is constant. Disruptive and Dynamic never stops moving and never becomes stagnant. To me, that shows that this company wants to stay relevant not just for themselves, but for their clients and for their employees.


In 2011, the game I was working on won a BAFTA

An unlimited supply of great jokes. I promise.

\ 4 Things I would bring with me to TBWA\RAAD:

Passion. Love for what I do and what I do for others

Results. Willing to adapt and explore new innovations

A hard working mentality that is solution oriented


\ Portfolio
