About This Role
This is an in-house creative production role within a large Ethiopian trading company’s marketing team. You will be responsible for the full lifecycle of visual content—from studio-quality interviews to rapid, trend-driven mobile clips. It suits a junior creative professional who thrives on variety and can toggle between polished brand work and fast-paced social media output, all while working from the company’s Gelan location.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The posting seeks a candidate who is not just technically skilled but operationally flexible—someone who can handle both high-end gear and smartphone workflows without missing a beat. The emphasis on “dual-threat” capability suggests the employer values speed and trend-awareness as much as traditional production quality. They are looking for a self-starter who can manage their own shoot-to-edit pipeline and adapt to shifting content demands.
How to Approach This Application
In your application, highlight specific examples of work that shows both ends of the spectrum—a polished interview or product shoot alongside short-form mobile content you edited natively. Emphasize your comfort with CapCut and mirrorless cameras, and mention any experience producing content for brand pages or ad campaigns. The employer likely prioritizes candidates who can demonstrate quick turnaround and a clear understanding of what drives engagement on platforms like TikTok and Instagram Reels.
Who This Role Suits
This role is best suited for a junior creative with 1–3 years of experience who enjoys hands-on production and can work independently. Given the broad skill set required and the company’s reputation, the competition may be moderate but manageable for focused applicants.
