Job description

Craft Stories. Capture Attention. Drive Engagement.
At BJAK, we believe stories inspire trust, spark curiosity, and create real connections. As we expand our creative content efforts, we're looking for a Script & Content Writer who can transform ideas into compelling scripts, storylines, and narratives for social media, short podcasts, and video shoots. Someone who can write with flair, think creatively, and bring structure to content that entertains, informs, and engages audiences at scale.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives in a fast-moving startup culture, understands how to tell stories across different formats, and loves the challenge of creating content that people can't scroll past.

Why This Role Matters

• You'll craft the scripts and storylines that bring our content vision to life across multiple platforms.
• Your writing will set the tone for how our audience perceives, engages with, and remembers BJAK.
• You'll play a key role in building a creative content engine that scales across social media, podcasts, and short-form video.
• You'll help us experiment with fresh formats and ideas that push the boundaries of digital storytelling.

What You'll Do

• Write scripts, storylines, and dialogues for social media content, podcasts, and short-form video shoots.
• Create engaging captions, hooks, and copy tailored for platforms like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and more.
• Collaborate with video producers, designers, and the creative team to ensure content flows seamlessly from script to screen.
• Research cultural trends, audience interests, and viral formats to inspire fresh, relevant content ideas.
• Adapt tone and storytelling style for different objectives - educational, entertaining, inspiring, or promotional.
• Contribute to brainstorming sessions, content calendars, and ideation of new formats.
• Ensure all content is original, on-brand, and aligned with BJAK's voice and goals.

You'll Thrive Here If You...

• Love storytelling and can write scripts that feel natural, engaging, and impactful.
• Are endlessly curious about trends, culture, and what makes people click "watch."
• Can switch styles easily - from witty and casual to professional and polished.
• Move fast and don't get stuck waiting for perfect - you believe in testing, iterating, and improving.
• Enjoy working closely with creatives, producers, and marketers to bring ideas to life.
• Think like an owner - you care about how your work performs, not just how it reads.

What You Bring

• 1-3 years of experience in scriptwriting, content writing, or related creative fields (fresh grads with strong writing portfolios are welcome).
• Strong writing and storytelling skills - especially for video and social-first content.
• Understanding of social media trends, platforms, and content formats.
• Ability to brainstorm, pitch ideas, and turn concepts into polished scripts.
• Excellent command of English (Malay is a plus).
• A portfolio or examples of past creative work (scripts, content, short-form writing).

Nice to Have

• Experience writing for podcasts, video production, or creative campaigns.
• Familiarity with storyboarding, creative direction, or video editing.
• Passion for film, media, or entertainment content.

What You'll Get

• Competitive compensation package.
• High ownership of creative content across multiple formats.
• Exposure to fast-growth startup projects that reach audiences regionally.
• A collaborative environment where ideas are heard, tested, and executed.
• The chance to shape BJAK's creative storytelling voice from the ground up.

Our Team & Culture

We move fast, think creatively, and execute relentlessly. At BJAK, we value ownership, speed, and outcomes over process and hierarchy. Everyone contributes directly, whether you're writing a script, brainstorming a new podcast format, or helping refine the flow of a video edit.
