• Keep track of global + Indian content trends, adapting them for brand relevance.
• Work with the social media strategy team to craft content that performs.
• Act as the Creative Director’s shadow—translating vision into executable ideas.
• Work with cross-functional teams (marketing, events, design) to align creative execution.
• Be proactive in problem-solving and pushing creative boundaries.

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong background in video production, storytelling, and visual communication.
• Solid knowledge of editing tools (Premiere Pro/Final Cut, After Effects is a plus).
• Familiarity with design tools (Photoshop, Illustrator, Canva, preferred).
• Understanding of social-first content and what makes reels/shorts go viral.
• Experience in scriptwriting/screenplay and content ideation.
• A portfolio of past work (student films, campaigns, reels, ads, etc.) is a must.

Education & Additional Plus Points

• Degree/Diploma in Film, Media, Communication, or relevant field is highly preferred.
• Knowledge of AI filmmaking tools (MidJourney, Runway, Kling, Sora, Google Flow, etc.) or experience in AI-integrated creative workspaces is a big advantage.
