About The Role

We are looking for a Creative Strategist dedicated to Instagram Reels and short-form video formats. Your goal is to capture immediate attention, drive organic reach, and build brand affinity through rapid, high-impact creative concepts. You understand short-form visual grammar, trend dynamics, audio triggers,



and how to hold attention in a scroll-heavy feed. You bridge the gap between creative storytelling and growth, giving our production team precise blueprints to execute.

Focus Area 1: Short-Form Concepting & Trend Capture

- Rapid Trend Hunting: Monitor social feeds, audio trends, visual formats, and financial commentary to spot viral concepts as they emerge.
- Concept Architecture: Design high-performing Reel formats, visual hooks, and text-on-screen structures tailored specifically for short attention spans.
- Hook Strategy: Craft the visual, textual, and audio hooks for the first 3 seconds of every short-form piece to maximize view completion rates.
- Batch Strategy: Build repeatable content frameworks and series formats that can be produced at scale without losing creative quality.

Focus Area 2: Visual Storytelling & Messaging
- Script & Beat Sheets: Write snappy, concise beat sheets and script outlines for creators, on-camera talent, and video editors.
- Visual Direction: Specify text overlays, b-roll references, graphics, and pacing notes so the editor knows exactly how the final output should feel.
- Performance Analysis: Review reach, saves, shares,



and watch time metrics to constantly refine narrative hooks and visual execution.

What We Are Looking For
- Short-Form Mastery: Track record of concepting high-reach Instagram Reels or short-form video content that drives high engagement and shares.
- Visual Pacing Sense: Intuitive understanding of edit speed, visual triggers, text placement, and sound design for modern social feeds.
- Distillation Skills: Ability to take a complex financial or product concept and turn it into a simple 30 to 60-second visual story.

Mindset To Succeed
- Speed & Velocity: You thrive on fast-paced execution, moving from an idea on your phone to a creative brief in minutes.
- Audience First: You know what makes someone stop scrolling, save a post, or share a Reel with a friend.
- High Ownership: You take complete accountability for content performance and constantly test new creative angles to beat feed fatigue
