Creative Copywriter

About the job:

We're hiring a Creative Copywriter.

This is not a content writing role. We need someone who can think in concepts, write film scripts, build deck narratives, and shape brand language across three very different verticals.

The work spans our feeding programmes (we serve lakhs of meals daily across Telangana and AP), Basil Woods Schools, and the Hare Krishna Heritage Tower project.

If you have a background in advertising, filmmaking, or design and your portfolio shows ideas, not just execution we'd like to hear from you.

Location: Hyderabad

Full-time | In-office
