Join the team!

HeavenGames is a rapidly growing company, so we always need new staff members. While the considerable cost of servers to support our 26 sites and millions of hits means we cannot pay many of our workers, HeavenGames does try to help its workers by providing:

  • Assistance in job/internship placement in the gaming industry.
  • Possible credit for those in university.
  • Personal websites (clouds) for all staff at no charge.
  • Possible access to game alphas/betas.

Unfortunately due to limited funds, unless otherwise stated, jobs at HeavenGames are volunteer. Work at HeavenGames is the perfect way to getting a job in gaming, an industry that is notoriously difficult to break into. But in addition to that, a HeavenGames job would give you great work experience with cutting-edge technology to be put on a resume for anything you would want to do and plug you into a community of hundreds of thousands of people. Finally, there are few opportunities where you can have your work viewed by millions of people; a HeavenGames job is one of them.

PAID POSITION - Advertising Manager
Pay: 10% Commission

Get rid of the annoying "FREE SMILIES" ads from HeavenGames! Work to get HG the best video game advertisements possible. The pay is considerable too: 10% of a $10,000 ad deal (not uncommon at HG) is $1,000, not too shabby at all.
