SOCIAL MEDIA EXECUTIVE – KANNADA
BANGALORE| ? Full-Time| 2-4 YEARS EXPERIENCE
If you can spot the story before everyone else does, read on. We’re looking for a politically sharp, internet-native Social Media Executive who understands that in politics, context is everything. You know when a statement is genuinely newsworthy, when a meme will land, when a narrative is shifting, and when X is about to explode.
You understand politics, people, personalities, constituencies, narratives and the internet — and know how to turn all of that into content.
What You’ll Do
- Manage social media for political campaigns across Instagram, Facebook, X, YouTube & WhatsApp
- Develop and execute social media strategies for campaigns and public communication
- Track speeches, interviews, debates, rallies and press conferences to identify moments worth clipping, posting and amplifying
- Turn political developments into Reels, posts, carousels, captions, scripts, memes and campaign narratives
- Write sharp, platform-native content in English, Hindi & Kannada
- Work closely with designers, video editors and campaign strategists
- Manage content calendars while staying ready to react in real time
- Analyze performance and understand why something worked — not just how many views it got
- Manage and optimize Meta Ads and support paid digital campaigns
What We’re Looking For You need to be politically well-versed. Not “I follow politics on Instagram” well-versed.
You Should Also Have
- 2–4 years of social media management experience, preferably in political, media, public affairs or communications
- Excellent command of English, Hindi & Kannada
- Strong understanding of major social platforms and short-form content
- Hands-on experience with Meta Ads & campaign management
- Experience with analytics, social listening or audience insights
- The ability to work extremely fast without losing attention to detail
- Comfort with ambiguity and constantly changing priorities
- A strong understanding of internet culture, memes, emerging formats and what makes people stop scrolling
Prior political campaign experience and experience managing high-visibility public-facing accounts will be a robust advantage. THE SKILL WE’RE REALLY HIRING FOR
Judgement. We can teach platforms.
We can teach reporting.
What is much harder to teach is the instinct to look at a piece of political content and say:
“This is the moment.” WHY JOIN US?
You’ll work at the intersection of politics, media, culture and technology , alongside campaign strategists, creatives, designers, editors and political professionals.
You’ll get direct exposure to how modern political campaigns are built and how political stories are shaped and discussed online.
