Content Director – Social Media & Personal BrandingPickleMonk Media | Chennai | Full-time

We’re looking for a Content Director who can think, write and direct short-form videos — and has a proven track record of creating 1M+ organic-view content.

You’ll create social videos for brands, founders, doctors, CEOs, experts, owners and models.

This is not a typical social media manager or content writer role.

You will take a video from:

IDEA → HOOK → SCRIPT → DIRECTION → FINAL REEL

What you’ll do

- Conceptualise high-performing Reels and Shorts for brands
- Write hooks, scripts, dialogues and talking points
- Direct people on camera — founders, doctors, experts, owners, models and presenters
- Create personal-branding and brand social-media content
- Identify trends, formats and storytelling angles worth adapting
- Direct shoots and guide on-camera performance
- Work with videographers and editors to bring concepts to life
- Analyse content performance and improve future ideas
- Build repeatable content formats that can scale across clients

You MUST have
- Proven experience creating 1M+ organic-view content
- Experience creating content for brands/clients




- Strong scripting and storytelling skills
- Solid understanding of hooks, retention and shareability
- Experience with Instagram Reels / YouTube Shorts
- Ability to direct non-actors and get natural performances on camera
- Ability to turn ideas or complex subjects into engaging short-form videos
- A portfolio with actual performance numbers

PROOF MATTERSWhen you apply, send us 3–5 videos you've worked on. For each video, mention:

- Link
- Views
- Brand/client
- Your exact role — Writer / Director / Both
- What you did
- Why you think it worked

We are not hiring based on follower count, certificates or generic social media experience. Show us what you've made — and show us the numbers.

Compensation₹25,000 – ₹35,000/month

Higher compensation can be considered for candidates with an exceptional, verifiable track record.
