Jade Raymond leaves Ubisoft to pursue other ambitions

By Grayshadow, Posted 20 Oct 2014

Ubisoft Toronto founder Jade Raymond has left Ubisoft stating a desire to "pursue my other ambitions and new opportunities" after 10 years of collaboration.

"I've spent 10 extraordinary years at Ubisoft, and I am proud to have been part of many of the best teams in the industry making truly remarkable games," Raymond said. "This is one of the hardest decisions of my career, but the Toronto studio is strong and on a solid path. I'm confident that now is a good time for me to transition leadership of the studio to Alex and to pursue my other ambitions and new opportunities. Stay tuned for more on what's next for me, but for now, I'd like to thank Ubisoft for its partnership through the years, and I wish them the very best in all their next endeavors."

Back in 2004 Raymond joined Ubisoft as a producer for the Assassin's Creed series, going on to help found Ubisoft Toronto. Raymond's recent contributions include Splinter Cell: Blacklist and Watch Dogs. Ubisoft's fellow Toronto founding member, Alexandre Parizeau, will fill Raymond's position as managing director.

Severing as senior producer on Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction and Rainbow Six Vegas, Parizeau will report director to CEO of Ubisoft Montreal and Toronto, Yannis Mallat, and will oversee current, and unannounced projects, being developed at Ubisoft Toronto.
