Community Manager, (NIAT)

Location: Hyderabad Experience: 3-5 years Employment Type: Full time

About the Role :

We're looking for a Community Manager who is equal parts storyteller, strategist, and voice-of-the-brand. This isn't a role for someone who just schedules posts and replies to comments we need someone who can think in ideas, write in a distinct voice, and shape how our community experiences the brand across every touchpoint.

The ideal person has a background in creative copywriting, content strategy, social media, advertising, or brand/content marketing someone who's used to taking a brief, generating multiple creative angles, and translating ideas into copy, scripts, and formats that actually land with an audience.

What You'll Do :

Own and grow the brand's community across social platforms (Instagram, X/Twitter, LinkedIn, and others as relevant) building genuine engagement, not just vanity metrics.

Ideate creative angles and content concepts from briefs, campaigns, or brand moments bringing fresh, distinct thinking rather than default execution.

Write and adapt copy across formats captions, community replies, scripts for reels/shorts, campaign copy, contest mechanics, and community-first content.

Plan and execute a content/engagement calendar in collaboration with design, marketing, and leadership.

Monitor conversations and trends relevant to the brand and community, spotting opportunities for timely, relevant content.

Respond to comments, DMs, and community queries in a tone that's consistent with brand voice building relationships, not just resolving tickets.

Collaborate with designers, video editors, and marketing teams to bring ideas to life across formats.

Track engagement, sentiment, and community health metrics,



and use those learnings to sharpen future content and strategy.

Represent the community's voice internally — feeding audience insights back into brand and product decisions.

What We're Looking For :

3–5 years of experience in community management, content creation, copywriting, social media, or a creative/advertising agency environment.

Strong ideation skills — someone who can take a one-line brief and come back with multiple creative directions.

Excellent writing skills, with the ability to adapt tone and format (captions vs. scripts vs. long-form vs. community replies).

A sharp eye for what performs on social — trends, formats, meme culture, platform-specific nuances.

Comfort working across multiple content formats — short-form video scripts, carousels, static copy, community posts.

Ability to balance creativity with consistency — staying true to brand voice while still pushing ideas forward.

Strong collaboration skills to work with design, marketing, and leadership teams.

A genuine interest in online culture, communities, and how people engage with brands.

Good Fit If You've Worked As :

Creative Copywriter

Content Strategist

Social Media Creator/Manager

Creative Strategist

Copywriter (with strong ideation, not just execution)

Tools & Skills :

Comfortable with basic design tools (e.g., Canva, Figma, or similar) to mock up quick creatives, carousels,



or visual content when needed.

Familiarity with video/reel editing tools (e.g., CapCut, InShot, Adobe Premiere Rush, or similar) to cut, trim, and adapt short-form video content.

Ability to use scheduling/community tools (e.g., Buffer, Hootsuite, native platform schedulers) to plan and publish content.

Basic understanding of analytics dashboards (native platform insights, or tools like Sprout Social) to track engagement and community health.

(Advanced design/editing skills are a plus, not mandatory — the core requirement is strong ideation and writing, with enough tool comfort to execute or brief designers/editors effectively.)

Nice to Have :

Experience managing a brand's community end-to-end (not just posting content).

A portfolio or examples of campaigns/content you've ideated and written.

Familiarity with performance metrics and how to translate them into content decisions.
