Job description

Animo is an innovative virtual production and motion-capture studio dedicated to

creating immersive and cutting-edge iGaming experiences for players around the

globe.

This is where it gets exciting: this is not a typical studio role. Our Virtual Gaming

Hosts remain anonymous, as customers see only the animated

character on screen, not the person wearing the motion-capture suit.

Full training and ongoing support are provided as you become familiar with the

role and the equipment used. You will work in a live studio environment with

opportunities to develop new skills and progress into leadership or other areas of the

business.

We welcome applications from people with different backgrounds, life

experiences and career journeys, including those ready to change careers or begin a

new career. No previous gaming, hosting, studio or on-camera experience is

required as training is provided. What matters most is that you are dependable,

comfortable communicating, open to learning and able to work as part of a team.

About the Role

This is a unique, studio-based Virtual Gaming Host (VGH) position within our Internal

Operations team.

A Note on Rostered Hours

This role will suit someone who enjoys variety in their working week, is comfortable

working outside traditional business hours or values having time available during the

day.

The studio keeps the streams running around the clock, so shifts are rostered 24/7

across days, evenings, overnights, weekends and public holidays on a rotating

basis. Applicants must be available to work across the full rotating roster.

We recognise that overnight and weekend work asks more of our people. That's why these shifts attract penalty rates above the applicable award minimum.

We are happy to explain what the roster typically looks like during the application or

interview process to help you decide whether the role is a good fit.

What You Will Do

Live Hosting

  • Host live sessions in a real-time motion-capture studio.
  • Create an engaging and professional experience for customers.
  • Communicate clearly and confidently while following required facilitation style.
  • Follow procedures to keep each session smooth, consistent and fair.
  • Maintain awareness of the live studio environment.
  • Identify and elevate irregularities when required.
  • Complete required checks before and after live sessions.
  • Help ensure the studio is ready to support uninterrupted live streams.
  • Use, care for, maintain, store and account for motion-capture suits and
  • Complete required suit and equipment-care activities as directed.

Maintain Health, Safety and Quality Standards

  • Follow health, safety and environmental requirements in the studio and
  • shared workspaces.
  • Contribute to a safe, respectful and supportive team environment.
  • Apply studio procedures and instructions consistently.
  • Maintain professional standards during all live sessions.

We are Looking for Full-time & Part-time applicants

You do not need to come from a particular industry or have followed a traditional

career path. Skills developed through different work, caring responsibilities,

community involvement, education or other life experiences may all be relevant to

this role.

Successful applicants will be prepared to:

Be reliable, punctual, fully prepared and ready for all scheduled shifts and

training.

Work across a 24/7 rotating roster, including days, evenings, overnights,

weekends and public holidays.

Contribute to a positive, respectful and supportive team environment.

Communicate clearly and professionally.

Bring integrity to every session by consistently meeting established facilitation guidelines and live-session standards.

Remain focused in a live studio environment.

Deliver a positive and consistent customer experience.

Assessment Requirements

  • Complete a short, role-related movement assessment to confirm they can
  • Demonstrate that they can safely undertake the practical requirements of the

role.

Experience

  • Experience in customer service, hospitality, entertainment, presenting, retail,
  • tourism or another people-focused environment is not required but may be
  • helpful.
  • Transferable skills gained through other work, caring responsibilities,
  • community involvement, education or life experience will be considered.
  • Previous rotating-roster or overnight-shift experience may be helpful but is not

Our Commitment

As we continue to build a balanced team and community that reflects a broad mix of backgrounds, perspectives and life experiences, we welcome applications from
