Content Head - Organic and Ads
📍
Kolkata, India
Monthly Salary Range : INR 50,000 - INR 75,000

Mid Level
Full Time
Onsite Required
The Opportunity:
We are looking for a Content Lead / Content Brain — someone who can own content from ideation to execution.
This is not a job where you are given a brief and simply asked to make a few posts. We want someone whose brain is constantly thinking about content. Someone who sees something interesting and immediately thinks, "Can this become content?"
From coming up with wild ideas to executing them, you will be involved in everything.
What You'll Do
Own the entire content journey — from ideation to execution.
Constantly research, observe trends, study brands, creators and the internet to find interesting content opportunities.
Come up with concepts that people haven't seen 100 times already.
Work closely with all stakeholders across the business to find stories, ideas and opportunities worth turning into content.
Coordinate closely with our Social Media Manager and Video Editor to bring ideas to life.
Sometimes get behind the camera and shoot things yourself when required.
Plan, test and execute multiple content concepts continuously.
Look at data, insights, engagement and reach to understand what is working and why.
Double down on winners, learn from failures and keep experimenting.
Help build a strong organic content engine across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter/X.
Our Content Philosophy
We believe organic content is our engagement and reach generator.
Paid advertising is different. Ads are our revenue generator, and the thinking behind them needs to be different too.
We are open to founder videos, product videos, storytelling, experiments and all sorts of creative ideas — but we are not looking to make the same usual GRWM, generic lifestyle or copy-paste D2C ads that everybody is already doing.
If you understand ads and content, you know exactly what we mean.
Our Inspiration
We respect brands like Gully Labs and Desi Minimals and the way they have consistently built themselves through social media. They are competitors in the market, but we genuinely respect good work. We want to build our own strong content engine with the same consistency — but with our own voice, personality and crazy ideas.
What We Have
We now have an in-house studio and an office-in-residence setup in Kolkata, which means we can think, create, shoot and test fast.
The goal is simple: we want to grow organically, and we want to experiment aggressively.
If an idea sounds crazy but has potential, we want to test it.
We can do and test as many concepts as possible.
Who Should Apply?
You should apply only if:
You have worked with the best, or you know what best-in-class content actually looks like.
You are genuinely great at your job and want to build something big.
Your brain is content-led.
You are constantly researching, ideating and thinking about content.
You see content everywhere.
You are what we would call content-paglu.
You don't just have ideas — you know how to take them from an idea to something that is actually published.
You understand the difference between content that gets attention and advertising that drives revenue.
You are comfortable collaborating with different people and getting things executed.
You don't mind getting your hands dirty and shooting something yourself when required.
You love testing, learning, failing fast and trying again.
The Challenge
We are a 3-year-old brand, and we have recently set up our second office-in-residence in Kolkata.
We currently have around 10K followers.
Our question is: Can we reach 50K followers organically by March 2027?
If your answer is yes, and you know you can help us get there, come join us.
Let's build something crazy good together.
