I’m going to be honest. I turned to AI to write this JD, but OHMYGOD IT WAS A SNOOZE-FEST It just didn’t capture the vibe. So I’m going ot type my heart out, and if it lands with you, then let’s chat. Also excuse any typos :p Hi I’m Prat (short for Prathyusha), and I head marketing at The Quad. I’ve been with the org for more than 3 years, and it’s been quite the journey. I met some wonderful people, made friends for life, and learnt SO MUCH about fitness. It might not be a hit conversation at parties, but it made me a much healthier person for sure In the last couple of years, the marketing team grew from two to five, and now we’re ready for more :) Let me tell you a little about The Quad: The Quad is a fitness coaching company with strength training at its core, because strength is essential for all. Period. You need strength to go about your day without aches and niggles. And that compounds into you living your life without the fear of how your body might react. Seriously, one of our members summited Mt. Kilimanjaro, simply because she wanted to Your life really expands when you’re stronger. Also, it’s not an all-boys club. Strength is especially important for women. In fact, nearly 50% of our members are women. If been to any gym, you’ll know why this statistic is mind-blowing. We’ve been around for 15 years, and today, we’re a team of over 60 incredibly smart and talented people. We have folks ranging from 35 to 80 training with us, all with the aim of simply getting stronger. Okay now let’s move on to the meat of this document The

Job Description
The role we’re hiring for is Social Media Content Executive, and you will be reporting to the Social Media Manager Our social media is one of our crucial marketing tools. It’s where a lot of our members discover us, learn

about us
,



and convert into paying members. It’s the space where we showcase who we are, who we are not, and the sort of impact we’re driving. You’ll be a part of the team that brings all this to life and will be reporting to the social media manager. You can check out our Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/thequad.in/ Here’s what you’re expected to do: 1. Ideas, scripts, and storyboards: You'll work with the Social Media Manager on this. You will bring your ideas and research forward. 2. Information gathering: This is where you’ll get to interact with the larger team. See, we can’t create content in a silo. We need input from the larger team. And you’ll be driving that 3. Shoot coordination: You'll line up people, locations, and timings so that shoots run on schedule 4. Shoot: You'll support the Social Media Manager on shoots, including setting up, filming, and making sure we get the footage the edit needs. 5. Edit and design: I saved the best one for last
- You will own the edit and design of every piece of content that goes out. You need to know what clips to pick, how to edit for better hook rate and retention, what edit style to use, what audio to use (based on what’s trending and what will suit the post), and what else…basically anything that will bring all the work that was done to fruition. The same goes for design: carousels, static posts, stories etc.



So you should know how to lay out a post so people read it, stop on it, and interact with it. This role is designed to give you context on what and why you’re editing and designing, so that when you actually sit at the edit table, you already know what you’re going to do. This means editing and designing WILL be a big part of your role. As you get better and better, the role will expand to make room for more functions that drive social media. Now look, let me tell you what I care about the least: years of work experience. As long as you can showcase skill and the drive to create impact through content. Well, that and a few more things I care about :) ● Strong communication skills for sure ● Solid writing skills ● A portfolio of short-form video you've edited and some designs you’ve made, whether for a brand, a client, a college project, or your own page ● Strong working knowledge of Adobe Premiere Pro and Canva ● Comfort with quicker tools like Edits or InShot when a quick turnaround matters ● A good sense of pacing, hooks, sound, and on-screen text, and an eye for what makes someone stop scrolling ● Comfortable with framing and shooting content on the phone ● Reliability with deadlines and follow-ups, since other people's work depends on yours. If you’ve checked out our insta, you would’ve noticed that we don’t post simply for the sake of posting. We create content that resonates with people. Content that educates them, makes them laugh, feel empowered, or simply seen. Content that ultimately drives people to make a change in their lives. A healthy one So, if you’d like to be a part of the team that makes all this happen, I’d love to hear from you. Send me your CV and portfolio, and we’ll talk :)
