Content Creator & Brand Storyteller

About Splssh

We're a Pretoria-based branded merchandise company. But we're not what you'd expect.

We don't sell products. We create branded experiences, custom apparel, gifting, packaging, and event merchandise for some of South Africa's most recognisable brands. We've worked with 385+ clients including Standard Bank, King Price, Fidelity, Naked Insurance and Virseker.

Our tagline is Make it Unordinary. That's not just a slogan it's how we work, how we think, and what we expect from every person on our team.

The Role

We're looking for a Content Creator and Brand Storyteller who can help us document, shape and share the work we do every day.

This isn't a social media management role. This is a creative production role. You'll be on the ground shooting projects, writing stories, and turning what we do into content that makes people stop scrolling.

If you studied journalism, media, or communications and you've been wondering how to apply that in a creative commercial environment this is your answer.

What You'll Do

• Document projects from brief to delivery: photo, video, and behind-the-scenes
• Create reels, carousels, and editorial-style content for Instagram and LinkedIn
• Write captions, posts, and short-form copy that sounds human, not corporate
• Help develop LinkedIn content for the founder: research, drafts, and ideas
• Build a growing content library that keeps Splssh visible and relevant
• Shoot and edit to a premium lifestyle standard, think editorial, not stock

What We're Looking For

Non-negotiable:

• A genuine storyteller: you find the angle in everything
• Comfortable behind a camera (phone or entry-level camera is fine)
• Can shoot and edit video, reels, short-form, behind-the-scenes
• Strong writer: clear, warm, conversational, no corporate fluff
• Journalism, media, communications, or marketing background

A big advantage:

• Portfolio that shows both writing and visual work
• Personal social media presence with a strong aesthetic
• Interest in branding, design, or marketing
• Experience with Adobe Premiere, CapCut, or similar editing tools

Who You Are

• You're probably 1–2 years out of a journalism or media degree. You've been freelancing, working at a publication, or doing content on the side and you're ready for something with more creative range and commercial impact.
• You notice things. You pick up a finished gift box and immediately see the story. You walk into a shoot and already know the angle.
• You take initiative. You don't wait to be told what to shoot, you come back with more than asked.
• You care about quality. Not perfection, but craft. You know the difference between content that gets likes and content that gets clients.

What We Offer

• R15,000 – R20,000/month depending on experience
• A creative environment where your work actually matters
• Exposure to major SA brands and marketing teams
• Real creative ownership from day one
• A fast-growing company with genuine ambition
• A team that will invest in developing your skills

How to Apply

Send us the following:

• A short note on why this role and why Splssh
• Your portfolio or examples of content you've created (writing and visual)
• Your personal Instagram or LinkedIn
