Job Details

Content Creator (BM Speaking) If you can explain EPF, inflation or the latest Budget to your friends in Bahasa and have them say โ€œoh, now I get it,โ€ this is your playground. You will host our podcast, front our videos and shape the shows we put out. You will do the research, prep the shoots and then step in front of the camera and make it land. The topics are big: money, business, the economy, the whole messy business of adulting, and whatever is actually happening in Malaysia this week. If it touches how Malaysians make, keep or lose money, it is fair game. The fun part is the translation. Taking something that sounds dry on paper and saying it the way a friend would, so a 28 year old in Puchong stops scrolling and thinks about their own money. Key Responsibilities ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ Podcast Hosting - Host our Bahasa podcast. Lead the conversation, ask the second question, and keep guests relaxed and listeners hooked. - Prep guest briefs and talking points so every episode has a clear angle. - Keep it natural. Conversational, curious and never a lecture. ๐Ÿง  Research and Prep - Scout topics daily across personal finance, economics and news, and bring us angles we would not have found on our own. - Research properly before every shoot. Every number we publish carries a source and the year the data comes from. - Write scripts, outlines and talking points that sound like a person, not a press release. ๐ŸŽฌ Show Producing - Produce shows by following our established format, from concept and planning through to shoot day. - Pitch new formats and series, not just new topics. - Work with our editors and give clear feedback on cuts. Spot a weak edit before it goes out. ๐Ÿ“ฑ Social Content and Trends - Create and present short-form content for Instagram, TikTok and beyond. - Live in the feed. Spot trends early and work out how they fit our brand and our message. - Know why a piece worked, or why it did not, and use that to make the next one better. ๐Ÿ’ฌ Community - Listen to what the audience keeps asking and turn it into content. - Reply to comments and DMs like a person, not a brand account. ๐Ÿค Events and Brand Campaigns - Show up at events and community sessions, on camera when needed. - Get a seat at the creative table on brand campaigns: how do we deliver what a client needs and still sound like us. Requirements Join us if you are: - Genuinely curious about money and the real world. You already read about personal finance, the economy and the news. You ask questions because you want to know, not because someone told you to. - Fluent in spoken Bahasa. Clear, natural and relatable. You can switch between casual and more serious tones without losing your audience. - Naturally in tune with social media. You know Instagram and TikTok, you understand hooks, formats and pacing, and you can explain why a post blew up. - Comfortable in front of the camera. You come across as yourself, you can talk to a lens or a guest, and you do not freeze when the red light comes on. - A creative storyteller. You can take a complicated idea and make it land in sixty seconds or sixty minutes. - A creative problem solver. The guest cancels, the shoot falls through, you find another way to make the piece. - Organised with your workflow. Research, scripts, shoot schedules and files stay tidy with you. - Someone who treats a flop as information. Not every episode or post lands. You look at what went wrong, take the lesson and get on with the next one. - Energised by a fast pace and a steep learning curve. You will be thrown into real work early. If that sounds exciting rather than scary, you will love it here. - Bonus points if you have hosted a podcast or show, run a content account of your own, or have a basic feel for shooting, framing and light. What Youโ€™ll Learn ๐Ÿš€ How a real media brand actually grows, not the theory version. ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ How to host a show that people finish, share and come back to. ๐Ÿ’ก How to talk about money and adulting like a friend, not a lecture. ๐Ÿ“ˆ How to read data and let it change what you make next. ๐Ÿค What it takes to deliver for a client without losing your own voice. ๐ŸŽฌ Content from end to end: idea, research, script, shoot, publish, learn.
