About Magna Creative
Magna Creative is a small business based in New South Wales. We work across digital operations, project delivery, esports and focused website projects.
We usually get involved when a project has become hard to keep hold of — too many people, systems and deadlines to keep track of, and nobody has enough time to keep all of it moving.
Our experience is a slightly unusual mix: international esports, senior operations in games-focused education and employability, digital systems and website delivery.
We work with organisations across Australia and internationally.
Operations & Project Delivery
Jake started out as a teacher before moving into games and esports. Since then, his work has ranged from running international tournaments to leading operations for education and employability programmes.
In practice, that has meant coordinating staff and partners, keeping several programmes on track, fixing messy systems and dealing with the day-to-day problems that appear when lots of people and deadlines are involved.
That includes international Age of Empires II events backed by World’s Edge (Microsoft), alongside digital projects and operational systems work.
That is the approach he brings to Magna Creative: understand how the work is really happening, find the points slowing people down, and fix those before adding another tool or process.
Start with the work, not the tool
The best answer is not automatically another platform, a bigger team or a more elaborate process.
We start by looking at what needs to happen, where it is getting stuck and who needs to own each part.
Then we fix the part that is causing the problem. Sometimes that is a process or system; sometimes it is simply giving somebody clear responsibility or extra capacity.
Technology and AI can be useful. They are not the starting point.
The people discussing the project are the people involved in delivering it.
Magna Creative is intentionally small. We do not sell projects through one team and hand them through layers of account management.
If a project needs a specialist, we can bring one in, but we stay directly involved and keep responsibility clear.
