Experience: 4-6 years

Why This Role Matters

This role has real creative ownership, direct business impact, and a brand POV to build 

To apply: along with an updated resume, please  Send us three pieces of content you've made and are still proud of. One that performed as expected, one that surprised you, and one that failed. Two sentences on each: what happened and what you took from it

Finally, record a 60-second video you would actually post on Apna's Instagram, on camera, you as the face, driving job seekers to use the app to find their next opportunity.

Requirements

75%: Social Media Strategy & Execution

• Own content strategy and day-to-day execution across the platforms
• Manage each platform distinctly with different tone, different content grammar, different distribution logic
• Plan and maintain content calendars with a minimum of 4 weeks of live inventory at all times
• Write platform-native copy across all formats: Reels, carousels, static posts, Stories, threads, long-form
• Drive organic reach, follower growth, and engagement through consistent, high-quality content
• Amplify campaigns, product launches, and business moments across social channels
• Track weekly performance per platform; translate data into content decisions, not just reports

Platform Intelligence

• Maintain a working, documented understanding of how each platform's algorithm and distribution logic operates  and update it as platforms evolve
• Know the content grammar of each platform specifically: Reddit's upvote triggers, Instagram's save/share weighting, LinkedIn's dwell time signals, YouTube's watch time and click-through mechanics, X's reply-driven distribution, Facebook's community vs. feed dynamics
• Build and maintain a content pattern library: hooks, structures, formats, and engagement triggers you can articulate and replicate, not just feel

On-Camera & Video

• Serve as the on-camera face of the brand across social content, product videos, campaign shoots, and office content
• Write video concepts and full scripts for brand, campaign, and social formats
• Coordinate and participate in in-house video shoots end to end
• Host events, live brand moments, and activations on camera and on stage when required
• This is not occasional. If being on camera is uncomfortable, this role isn't the right fit.

(25%) Business Partnering & Collaboration 

• Support lifecycle communication (WhatsApp, email) when campaigns or business priorities require it for enterprise accounts

What We're Looking For

• 4-6 years of experience in social media, content, or brand communication preferably brand-side in a startup or high-growth environment
• Demonstrated cross-platform fluency across at least 5 of the platforms in scope you can speak to the distinct mechanics of each, not just the aesthetics
• Strong copywriting ability across formats: captions, scripts, campaign copy, and platform-native content
• Proven on-camera presence (comfortable presenting, hosting, and fronting brand content)
• Proven AI fluency - you have a daily working stack and can explain exactly where it accelerates your output and where it doesn't
• Ability to manage high content volume across parallel workstreams without dropping quality
• Deep familiarity with Indian internet culture and how trends travel differently across platforms
• Use AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, CapCut AI, or equivalent) as a daily part of the creative and production workflow

Success Metrics — First 90 Days

• Baseline performance benchmarks established across all platforms
• Content calendar live with minimum 4 weeks of planned inventory
• Engagement rate improved 30 % against prior 90-day period on primary platforms

Success Metrics — Month 6

• At least 30% of monthly content is proactive (trend-led, newsjacked, or culturally driven vs. purely planned)
• Measurable improvement in at least one depth metric per platform: saves, shares, watch time, or profile visits from organic content
• A documented content framework, platform-specific voice guide, and performance tracking log that the team can use independently
