text__text">THE ROLE The Communications Associate is responsible for bringing N grikas work to life on social media through design, video, writing, and content sourcing. This is a hands-on, creative execution role that sits at the intersection of design, storytelling, and research translation. You will be working closely with a small team, regularly going deep into N grikas reports, projects, and ongoing research to find the stories that deserve to be told publicly.

This role requires someone who is both a maker and a communicator - comfortable behind a camera and in front of one, equally at ease designing a carousel and writing the caption that makes it land.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Create content

- Design social media creatives, carousels, infographics, thumbnails, and reports.
- Edit reels, podcast clips, and other short-form videos.
- Plan and participate in content shoots, including appearing on camera.

Translate research
- Mine reports, city profiles, and ongoing projects for stories and insights.
- Turn complex research into engaging, accessible content.
- Collaborate with researchers to ensure accuracy and nuance.

Write and publish
- Write captions and social media copy aligned with N grikas voice.
- Contribute to content calendars and campaign ideas.
- Spot timely communication opportunities from ongoing work.

Engage audiences
- Respond to comments, messages, and communication enquiries.
- Escalate sensitive media or partnership requests when needed.

What We Offer
- Creative ownership over N grikas public voice.
- Close collaboration with research and policy work.
- A curious, collaborative,



and non-hierarchical team.
- A chance to shape conversations about Indias small cities.

WHO WILL THRIVE IN THIS ROLE You will enjoy this role if you:
- Love making high-quality visual and video content.
- Are comfortable speaking on camera.
- Can read a report and immediately spot a story worth telling.
- Balance creativity with accuracy.
- Take initiative and manage your own workflow.

This Role May Not Suit You If
- You want to work primarily on commercial brands or marketing campaigns.
- You prefer highly detailed briefs before beginning creative work.
- Youre uncomfortable appearing on camera.
- You only want to do graphic design without writing or engaging with research.

What You Bring

Required

- 1-3 years experience in content creation, communications, or visual design (internships and freelance work count).
- Robust Canva skills (Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, Premiere Pro, etc. are a bonus).
- Experience editing short-form video.
- Excellent written English. Confidence speaking on camera.
- Ability to interpret research and communicate it clearly.

Good to Have
- Familiarity with urban issues, governance, or the social sector.
