1. DIGITAL MEDIA CONTENT CREATOR Location: Chennai Ekkaduthangal / Thiruvanmiyur
Employment Type: Full-Time, On-Site
Travel: Within Tamil Nadu, across India and Middle East as required
Position Overview
We are looking for a young, creative and energetic Digital Media Content Creator who can create engaging visual content for the Founders personal brand as well as the company’s digital and social media platforms.
This is a hands-on content creation role. The successful candidate should be comfortable working behind the camera, shooting videos using smartphones, identifying interesting camera angles and capturing real-life business, leadership, lifestyle, corporate and event-based content.
The individual should have a good understanding of how content differs across platforms, particularly Instagram and LinkedIn, and should be capable of researching trends, developing new content ideas and converting everyday activities, business events and experiences into engaging digital content.
Key Responsibilities
- Shoot high-quality videos and photographs primarily using smartphones and other available camera equipment.
- Understand and apply appropriate camera angles, framing, composition, lighting and movement while shooting.
- Shoot short-form vertical videos suitable for Instagram Reels, Stories and other social media formats.
- Shoot professional business, leadership, educational and corporate-style videos suitable for LinkedIn.
- Create content for both the Founder’s personal social media presence and the company’s official digital platforms.
- Accompany the Founder and/or company team for meetings, events, business activities, site visits, conferences and other content opportunities when required.
- Identify interesting moments and opportunities for content creation instead of depending entirely on instructions.
- Research Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube and other online platforms to identify relevant trends, topics, formats and content ideas.
- Develop creative concepts and suggest new ideas for Reels, short videos, interviews, educational content, business content and personal-brand storytelling.
- Understand the difference between personal-brand content, corporate content and platform-specific content.
- Assist in planning content shoots, locations, shot sequences and basic storyboards where required.
- Work closely with the Founder and management team to understand the intended message and convert ideas into engaging visual content.
- Organise and maintain photographs, video footage and other digital media systematically.
- Coordinate with social media, design and editing resources where required to ensure captured content is converted into high-quality finished material.
- Basic video editing capability will be an advantage.
- Stay updated with evolving social media trends, content formats, mobile videography techniques and digital content tools.
- Be flexible with working hours when content needs to be captured outside regular office timings, during events or while travelling.
- Be willing to travel within Chennai, Tamil Nadu, across India and internationally, particularly to the Middle East, when business requirements demand.
What We Are Looking For We are not looking only for someone who knows how to operate a camera. We want someone who is curious, observant and creative — someone who can look at a location, business meeting, journey, event or everyday experience and think:
“There is a good piece of content here. How can we capture it?”
The role offers significant exposure to entrepreneurship, business, leadership, personal branding, digital media and content creation across India and the Middle East.
