Associate Creative Director - Job Description

About Nxt Wave

Nxt Wave is revolutionizing the way India learns tech. With millions of learners across the country and a powerful in-house content engine, we create video experiences that inspire, educate, and build careers.

To help scale our creative ambition, we’re looking for an Associate Creative Director, a creative visionary, detail-obsessed storyteller, and second-in-command to our Creative Director. If you’re a master of video direction and visual storytelling with a strategic brain and leadership mindset, this is your stage.

About the Role

As Associate Creative Director, you’ll work closely with our Creative Director to execute the vision of India’s most advanced multi-campus content system. You’ll translate strategy into stories, decks into direction, and vision into visual systems that scale across You Tube, Instagram, and internal channels.

You’ll be responsible for the creative orchestration of branded, educational, and UGC-aligned content, acting as the creative bridge between leadership, editors, and on-ground campus creators. This role is perfect for someone who blends creative firepower with operational finesse.

What You’ll Own

  • Partner with the Creative Director to lead creative vision and narrative frameworks across all core video verticals.
  • Provide hands-on creative direction and feedback to video editors, scriptwriters, motion designers, and colorists.
  • Collaborate with the Video Director on the execution of high-value videos, long-form content, and flagship brand formats.
  • Take ownership of creative decks, moodboards, content blueprints, and presentation design for campaigns and internal pitches.
  • Support multi-location content operations by ensuring every piece aligns with the brand tone, story clarity, and execution standards.
  • Spot creative gaps, pilot new formats, and act as the strategic mirror to the Creative Director’s macro vision.
  • Champion a culture of clarity, consistency, and continuous creative elevation.

What You Bring

  • 7–12 years of experience in video direction, content leadership, or creative strategy roles.
  • A strong portfolio of directed and creatively guided videos : documentaries, ads, educational content, or platform-native formats.
  • Proficiency in building and presenting high-impact creative decks, pitches, and storytelling systems.
  • Deep knowledge of content architecture across You Tube, Reels, and branded digital storytelling.
  • Experience working across post-production teams, including editors, motion, sound, and QC.
  • Ability to guide without micromanaging, and lead with empathy and clarity.
  • Comfortable working with evolving narratives, multi-stakeholder inputs, and rapid turnaround schedules.
  • Bonus Skills

  • Prior work in edtech, media startups, or youth-focused content brands
  • Fluency in visual hierarchy, scripting flow, and scalable content frameworks
  • Why Join Nxt Wave?

  • Work alongside visionary creative leadership on nationally impactful content
  • Help shape one of India’s largest in-house content ecosystems
  • Grow into a leadership role in a company that blends mission + media at scale
  • Collaborate with powerhouse teams across video, education, product, and growth
  • Create a job alert for this search
