About the Job

Games Workshop has an exciting opportunity for an Army and Battlefields Painter to join our renowned Warhammer Studio where you’ll help to create world class displays and armies that glorify Games Workshop miniatures, to be exhibited at our Warhammer World visitor centres, Global Events and other locations globally.
 
Passionate about Warhammer and a skilled miniatures painter, we’ll look to you to thoroughly understand the Warhammer ranges and use your creative judgement of what makes fantastically painted miniatures, scenery and terrain, and be able to communicate that effectively through your work.

These will vary in scale from dioramas with a handful of miniatures to huge epic battle scenes with thousands.

Strong communication skills and time management are critical in this role as we’ll look to keep colleagues informed of the status of each project at key times. You’ll need to be effective with your time to ensure work is delivered on time and to the required standard.
