Creative Project Manager

Creative Project Manager

Because — Ahmedabad · Full-time · On-site

We're Because — an AI-native brand and marketing agency working across education, real estate, lifestyle, sports and financial services. This role is for someone who is genuinely two things at once: sharp enough to run client relationships, and creative enough to do the actual work. You'll own 4–6 accounts, report directly to a senior strategist, and be expected to think, write, plan, coordinate, and execute — often on the same day. If that sounds exhausting rather than exciting, this probably isn't the right fit.

What you'll own

• Manage 3–4 client accounts end-to-end — timelines, feedback cycles, approvals, and proactive communication. Clients should never have to follow up with you.
• Develop content strategy and campaign concepts — not just execute briefs, but help shape what the brief should be in the first place.
• Write copy across formats — social captions, scripts, brand messaging, ad copy, emailers — in English, Hindi, or Gujarati depending on the client.
• Build client presentations and strategy decks that make a clear argument and hold the room.
• Contribute to pitches — own your section, know the prospect's business, and present with conviction.
• Plan and coordinate shoots — brief photographers and videographers, prepare shot lists and call sheets, manage on-ground logistics, and ensure the output matches the creative vision.
• Write scripts for reels, brand films, ads, and talking-head content — punchy, platform-aware, and on-brief.
• Reference and brief designers and video editors with enough visual and tonal direction that they don't have to guess what you want.
• Manage social media hands-on for select clients — content calendars, scheduling, captions, and community responses.
• Coordinate with external vendors — studios, talent, print vendors, photographers — and hold them to timelines and quality standards.

You're a fit if

• You have 3–4 years at a creative or marketing agency and you've genuinely done both sides — not just one with a footnote of the other.
• You can write in at least two of the three: English, Hindi, Gujarati. Fluency in all three is a real advantage here.
• You can hold a client conversation in the morning, brief a designer at noon, review a script by evening, and not mix up which client is which.
• Your strategy thinking is grounded — you back ideas with audience insight, not just instinct.
• You've been on set. You know what a shot list is, how to manage a photographer who runs late, and what "we'll fix it in post" actually costs.
• You use AI tools actively — for copy drafts, research, referencing, strategy frameworks — and you've built your own workflow around them.
• You push back on bad briefs and bad ideas — politely, with reasoning — rather than just executing whatever lands in your inbox.
• Nothing falls through the cracks on your accounts. Not because someone's checking, but because that's just how you work.

Work samples are mandatory. Share a deck you built, copy you wrote, a campaign you managed, or a shoot you coordinated.
