Voice, networks and visual identity
Communication & social media team
On TikTok, YouthShare talks to young people where they scroll. We want a bilingual, educational and personal presence: real substance, with the right vibe. Serious about facts, light on form.
This role is for you if…
- You know your FYP by heart, and you can tell why a video blows up
- On CapCut, you edit faster than your own shadow
- You make a serious topic gripping while staying true to the substance
- For you, fact-checking is part of the edit
Assignments
- Write short scripts from our analyses: hook, idea, proof, call to action
- Shoot and edit videos under a minute, solo or with a contributor on camera
- Launch recognisable series: “One lab, one question”, “Number of the week”, “What the analysis says”
- Ride the trends, sounds and formats of the moment, when they serve our line
- Reply on video to the best comments, start Stitches and duets
- Prepare LIVE streams during lab events
- Analyse every video (retention, shares, new followers) and adjust the strategy
- Ensure platform rules and the image rights of everyone filmed are respected
A typical week, at your pace
- Writing two or three scripts from recent analyses
- Batch shooting, solo or with a contributor
- Editing, captions, choosing the sound
- Publishing and video replies to the best comments
- Analytics: retention, shares, new followers
Tools to master
- TikTok Studio: publishing, scheduling, analytics per video and audience
- TikTok Creative Center: trends, sounds, hashtags and rising formats
- CapCut: editing, auto-captions, effects, templates

The one-year commitment
A non-profit project is built over time. Every volunteer therefore commits for at least one year: time to settle in, carry the assignment through and pass on what they have learned. The weekly time depends on the role and is shown on each role page.
