Location: Hybrid (Remote + In-Studio on Filming Days)
Type: Part-time / Contract
Start Date: Immediate

Role Overview

As our Content Manager, you will be the creative engine behind all our digital communication. You’ll manage content across YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, X (Twitter) and the podcast blog. You’ll work closely with the Host (Charles) and the studio team to plan, capture, edit, publish, and monitor high-quality content that reflects the energy and ambition of the Kampala Design Podcast.

You’ll also be present during filming — whether behind-the-scenes personal content or full podcast video recordings — capturing moments, helping with direction, and ensuring we always have material for storytelling.

This is a hybrid role: mostly remote, but in-studio when we’re filming or running events/activities.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and execute a content strategy for all podcast and studio digital channels.

• Draft captions, write blog articles, upload episodes, and manage platform-specific posting schedules.

• Capture behind-the-scenes content, short-form clips, and storytelling moments during shoots and interviews.

• Edit short-form video content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and promotional assets.

• Manage the YouTube channel, including titles, thumbnails, metadata, SEO, and upload workflows.

• Maintain and regularly update the podcast blog on the website.

• Coordinate with the design and production teams to ensure consistent brand identity across all platforms.

• Track audience growth, engagement, analytics, and insights for continuous improvement.

• Suggest new content formats, series, and ideas to strengthen our digital footprint.

Who We’re Looking For

• A creative content thinker with strong instincts for storytelling, trends, and digital communication.

• Skilled in content planning, social media management, and video editing for short-form platforms.

• Comfortable working independently and collaborating with the host during shoots.

• Reliable, proactive, and available whenever filming is happening (usually scheduled in advance).

• Familiar with YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, and blog publishing workflows.

• Experience with podcasts, media production, or design-related content is a strong bonus.

Why Join Us

• Work on a growing, culture-shaping platform in Uganda’s design and tech community.

• Flexible working style — remote majority of the time.

• Creative freedom to experiment with formats, styles, and storytelling.

• Be part of Biara Creative Studio’s expanding ecosystem of design, tech, and media products.

• Access to an inspiring network of designers, technologists, founders, and thought leaders.
