Cipher Corp Ltd (SPYSCAPE) is an innovative entertainment technology company, seeking a superstar Digital Project Manager to join our international team and help us expand our SPYSCAPE brand ecosystem.

About SPYSCAPE

SPYSCAPE is a fast-growing premium brand that creates stories and experiences to inspire people to discover their superpowers and their inner superheroes. 

In the physical world, SPYSCAPE HQ in New York City is the #1 rated new experience in New York City. It features seven core experiential zones and recently created the first ever official James Bond exhibition in the USA.

In the digital world, we’re now creating a new mobile experiences platform that combines interactive narratives with geolocative adventures. These play out in real-time (like the TV series 24), in the real-world (like PokemonGo!). We have also built a unique skills assessment methodology and scoring algorithm to illuminate individual personality, skills and attributes. Developed with top psychologists and a former Head of Training at British Intelligence, this program gives people an inspiring detailed dossier of their own attributes and potential - check it out here
