About Digital Khidki

Digital Khidki is a digital-first media and content platform focused on creating engaging, relevant, and high-quality content for audiences across digital and social media platforms.

We are looking for a Content & Social Media Head who can lead our content strategy, build a strong social media presence, and turn ideas, trends, and stories into content that people want to watch, read, share, and discuss.

Role Overview

The Content & Social Media Head will be responsible for owning the overall content and social media strategy of Digital Khidki — from ideation and editorial planning to content production, publishing, audience growth, and performance analysis.

The ideal candidate should have a strong understanding of Hindi digital content, social media trends, audience behaviour, storytelling, and platform-specific content formats.

Key Responsibilities

Content Strategy & Leadership

- Develop and execute the overall content strategy aligned with Digital Khidki's brand vision and business objectives.
- Build and manage a monthly/weekly content calendar across platforms.
- Identify relevant Hindi-language topics, trends, conversations, and cultural moments that can drive audience engagement.
- Define content pillars, formats, tone of voice, and editorial guidelines.
- Maintain a strong balance between quality, consistency, relevance, and speed of execution.
- Lead brainstorming and ideation sessions with the content and creative team.

Social Media Management

- Own the social media strategy and growth across platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, X, LinkedIn, and other relevant platforms.
- Develop platform-specific strategies rather than simply repurposing the same content everywhere.
- Drive growth in followers, reach, engagement, video views, watch time, shares, saves, and other relevant KPIs.
- Stay updated with algorithm changes, emerging formats, memes, trends, creator culture, and evolving audience behaviour.
- Build strategies around Reels, Shorts, carousels, posts, stories, long-form videos, live content, and other emerging formats.

Content Creation & Editorial

- Conceptualise and oversee Hindi-first content across news, entertainment, culture, lifestyle, explainers, opinion,



and/or other relevant categories.
- Ensure content is engaging, factually sound, grammatically correct, and aligned with the brand's voice.
- Work closely with writers, editors, designers, video producers, photographers, and creators.
- Review and approve content before publication where required.
- Develop compelling headlines, hooks, captions, thumbnails, scripts, and CTAs.
- Ensure the first few seconds/lines of content are strong enough to capture audience attention.

Team Management

- Lead, mentor, and manage the content and social media team.
- Set clear responsibilities, deadlines, and performance expectations.
- Build efficient workflows from ideation → production → publishing → analytics → optimisation.
- Identify talent gaps and support hiring/freelancer/creator partnerships as required.
- Foster a culture of experimentation and continuous improvement.

Analytics & Growth

- Track content and social media performance using relevant analytics tools.
- Analyse metrics such as reach, engagement, retention, CTR, watch time, follower growth, shares, saves, and conversions.
- Translate data into actionable content strategies.
- Conduct regular content audits and identify what is working and what needs improvement.
- Experiment with formats, hooks, topics, posting schedules, and distribution strategies to improve performance.

Brand & Community

- Develop a distinctive and recognisable voice for Digital Khidki.
- Monitor comments, conversations, audience sentiment, and emerging community trends.
- Encourage meaningful audience interaction and community building.
- Manage sensitive or potentially controversial content with sound editorial judgement.
- Ensure all content remains aligned with brand values and editorial standards.

Must-Have Skills & Qualifications

- 5–8 years of relevant experience in content, digital media, social media, publishing, journalism, or a similar role.
- Excellent Hindi communication skills are mandatory, both written and verbal.
- Strong command of Hindi grammar, vocabulary, storytelling, and digital writing.




- Proven experience in building or managing social media pages/channels and growing digital audiences.
- Strong understanding of Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and other major social platforms.
- Strong understanding of short-form video content, especially Reels and YouTube Shorts.
- Ability to write or guide the creation of compelling Hindi scripts, captions, headlines, hooks, and social copy.
- Strong editorial judgement and an understanding of what makes content clickable without becoming clickbait.
- Comfortable working with analytics and using performance data to make content decisions.
- Strong leadership, communication, planning, and team-management skills.
- Ability to work in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple content priorities simultaneously.

Good to Have

- Experience in a Hindi media house, digital publication, news platform, content startup, creator ecosystem, or digital agency.
- Experience managing a team of writers, editors, social media managers, designers, or video creators.
- Familiarity with YouTube Studio, Meta Business Suite, Google Analytics, social listening, and content analytics tools.
- Experience in building content-led communities or digital brands from an early stage.
- Strong understanding of Gen Z and millennial audience behaviour in Hindi-speaking markets.
- Experience working with influencers, creators, or digital personalities.
- Basic understanding of SEO and digital distribution.
- Ability to identify trends early and turn them into original content ideas.
