- Own the content vision, editorial direction and brand voice of Chandigarh Life across Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and emerging platforms

- Set audience growth and engagement goals, and be accountable for hitting them

- Decide what we cover and how: trends, formats, recurring series and franchises that audiences return to and that brands want to sponsor

- Plan coverage for breaking news, city events and festivals so we are first and accurate

- Build the systems behind the output: content calendar, content bank, workflows, approvals and reporting

- Maintain editorial standards: verification before posting, accuracy and a consistent voice

- Work with the business development team on branded content that feels native and delivers results for clients

- Use analytics to make decisions: what worked, what didn't, and where to double down

- Bring AI tools into the team's workflow to create faster without losing quality

- Represent Chandigarh Life on camera,



at events and in collaborations when needed

What we're looking for:

- 6-10 years in content, social media or editorial roles, with at least 2-3 years leading a team

- A track record of growing audiences for a media brand, publisher, news or entertainment channel, or a large creator page (please share the numbers)

- Deep understanding of how each platform works and what makes content spread

- Robust editorial judgment and experience with news and time-sensitive coverage

- Solid knowledge of video production, shooting and editing workflows

- Comfortable with analytics, CRMs, Google Drive, Excel/Google Sheets and professional email

- Experience working with sales or partnerships teams on branded content

- Excellent Hindi and English; Punjabi is a plus

- Camera confidence is a strong advantage

- Based in the Tricity or willing to relocate
