About the role
I run a consulting business in Sydney called Kaizen Collective. We help service business owners build client acquisition systems that actually work. My personal
I'm looking for someone to own the growth of that account end-to-end.
This is not just a video editing role. This is a strategy and execution role.
You will be responsible for what gets posted, when, and why.
You will write captions. You will concept Reels & edit them.
You will track what works and do more of it. You will tell me when my ideas are bad.
If you're waiting for instructions before you can do anything, this isn't the job.
What you'll own
1. Instagram content calendar and posting schedule
2. Reel concepts, hooks, captions, and scripts (I film the content, you direct it)
3. Carousel design and copy
4. Video editing & thumbnail creation
5. Stories strategy and daily execution
6. Comment and DM triage (not sales conversations, just engagement and surfacing leads)
7. Daily & Weekly performance reporting — what worked, what didn't, what we're changing
8. Trend research and adaptation for my niche (service business owners, not general business)
What you don't own
- Paid ads (we have a media buyer)
You focus on one thing: growing my personal brand Instagram.
You're the right fit if
1. You've personally grown a social account from zero to something meaningful
2. You've managed at least one personal brand account end-to-end
3. You can write in someone else's voice without making them sound generic
4. You understand the difference between "content that gets views" and "content that gets clients"
5. You have taste
6. You ask questions when unclear instead of guessing
You're the wrong fit if
1. You're a video editor looking for your next gig
2. You need a full brief before you can start working
3. You've never posted anything you've personally concepted
4. You think AI can replace strategy
5. You're juggling five other clients and this is a side hustle
