About Rang De
Rang De is a social investing platform that connects citizens with entrepreneurs, farmers, and artisans across India who need access to affordable credit. We believe that ordinary people can be the force behind extraordinary change — and that social investing is one of the most powerful tools for reducing inequality.
We are building a movement, not just a platform. And stories are at the heart of everything we do.
Roles & Responsibilities
We are looking for a VP, Community & Content to lead Rang De's storytelling, editorial presence, content partnerships and Social Investor Community Engagement.
This is a senior leadership role. You will be responsible for building Rang De's intellectual presence — translating the realities of rural India, inequality, and citizen capital into narratives that move people to act.
As VP, Community & Content, you will lead and directly manage the content, community and experience and social investor relations.
Lead the Discovery Pod
- Directly manage and mentor the team across community and experience, investor relations, and content — setting creative direction, maintaining high standards, and supporting their growth.
- Align the team around a shared editorial and narrative strategy that serves both discovery and community goals.
- Work closely with the Head of Growth to ensure narrative, community, and investor engagement efforts are coordinated and purposeful.
Build Rang De's Narrative Presence
- Shape and own Rang De's voice across LinkedIn, Instagram, the blog, newsletters, and media.
- Develop a consistent editorial point of view rooted in Rang De's mission and values.
- Work with the founding team to sharpen founder narrative and public positioning.
- Commission and contribute to opinion columns, podcast appearances, and thought leadership pieces that position Rang De as the defining voice on social investing in India.
Create Stories That Travel
- Translate field realities — borrower journeys, investor stories, impact data — into compelling narratives.
- Write and oversee long-form pieces, essays, and reports that build Rang De's intellectual authority on financial inclusion, citizen capital, and inequality.
- Develop content formats that work across platforms and audiences — from social to long form to media.
Build Strong Content Partnerships
- Identify and build partnerships with media organisations, publications, newsletters, and content platforms that can amplify Rang De's narrative to new audiences.
- Develop co-created content and editorial collaborations with aligned organisations, creators, and thought leaders in the impact, finance, and development space.
- Work with the Head of Growth to turn content partnerships into structured distribution channels — not one-off collabs.
- Build relationships with journalists, editors, and media professionals who cover inequality, financial inclusion, and social impact in India.
Drive Discovery Through Content
- Build evergreen content assets that generate compounding traffic — guides, explainers, impact reports, and data-backed narratives.
- Oversee creator collaborations and ensure they are grounded in Rang De's narrative and mission.
Support Campaigns and Community
- Develop content that supports conversion campaigns and investor onboarding journeys.
- Create investor storytelling content that deepens community engagement and drives repeat investments.
- Ensure narrative consistency across every touchpoint — from discovery to investor support.
Who we are looking for
You are a storyteller and a leader. You care deeply about India's inequality crisis and believe that narrative is one of the most powerful tools for social change. You have built teams, managed creative talent, and know what it takes to run an editorial function.
- 12 to 15 years of experience in content, journalism, editorial, or storytelling roles — with at least 5-7 years in a leadership capacity.
- Exceptional writing ability — you can write a borrower story and an opinion column with equal conviction.
- Proven experience building content partnerships and media relationships that expand reach.
- Strong instinct for how narratives travel across digital platforms and into mainstream media.
- Comfort working with data, field insights, and complex social themes — and turning them into accessible stories.
- Experience working with or within mission-driven organisations is a strong advantage.
- Deep interest in financial inclusion, rural livelihoods, women's entrepreneurship, or inequality in India.
Benefits:
- Work from Anywhere (WFA)
- Competitive salary as per the social sector
- Additional 11 days leave for Vipassana Meditation
- Create sustainable social impact with your work
- A purpose-driven work environment with opportunities to create lasting social impact.
- A supportive and dynamic team culture focused on growth and innovation.
- Opportunities for professional development and field engagement.
