About the role
Social Media Content Creator & Manager (m/f/d)
Vienna · 30 hours per week · From €30,000 gross per year
Can you create videos that make people stop scrolling? Are you confident filming, editing and appearing on camera? Help us take Lystio’s social media presence to the next level.
We’re an Austrian real estate startup with almost 25,000 followers on Instagram and over 14,000 on TikTok. Some of our videos have reached up to 2.1 million views. You’ll have an established audience from day one—and the creative freedom to make your mark.
Your role
You’ll take ownership of our social media accounts and bring content from the first idea to publication. You’ll organise, film, edit, post and develop new formats, working directly with our team and founders.
Our current formats:
- “How much rent do you pay?”: People tell us what they pay for their home and take us on a tour of their apartment.
- “Good Deal”: Short, visually engaging property walkthroughs without a presenter.
- “Property Tour”: Guided property tours with an on-camera presenter, often alongside a real estate agent.
What you’ll do
- Find and contact people who would like to feature their homes in our videos.
- Coordinate filming appointments with participants and real estate agents. Our sales team handles agent acquisition.
- Prepare shoots and film on location using a smartphone, gimbal and microphone.
- Edit videos and add subtitles, music and graphics.
- Gather feedback and approvals, implement changes and get content published promptly.
- Manage Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and LinkedIn, including content planning, captions, covers, Stories and profile updates.
- Keep an eye on comments and messages and activate relevant ManyChat automations.
- Develop your own ideas and appear on camera: informative videos, POVs, new series or other formats that fit Lystio.
- Create static posts and learn from performance: What gets watched, shared and commented on? Let’s make more of that.
What you bring
You have a strong visual eye and know how to film professionally with a smartphone. You understand framing, camera movement, lighting and sound. You’re confident editing in CapCut or a similar tool and know how hooks, storytelling and pacing make a video better.
You speak and write German fluently and feel natural and confident on camera. You enjoy meeting people, organise your own work and follow through on tasks.
You’ll also need a category B driving licence and must be available in Vienna regularly for shoots and collaboration with the team.
We don’t require a specific degree. Show us what you can do. Having your own social media account is a plus, but there’s no minimum follower count.
How we work
We experiment, make decisions quickly and get things done. We’re looking for someone who brings ideas, takes ownership and moves things forward independently.
You’re comfortable figuring things out, aligning with the team and turning ideas into great content. Feedback is part of the process: We test, improve and keep developing our formats.
What you’ll get
- Established accounts with reach and an audience that will see your content.
- Creative freedom to develop your own ideas and formats.
- The opportunity to become one of the faces of Lystio.
- Direct collaboration with the founders and quick decisions.
- Varied shoots in interesting apartments and houses.
- Equipment including an iPhone Pro Max, DJI microphones, a gimbal, drone and MacBook. We’ll invest in useful additions when needed.
- An office in Vienna and a 30-hour working week planned around our shoots.
Salary
We offer a starting gross annual salary of €30,000 for 30 hours per week, paid in 14 salary instalments. Higher compensation is possible depending on your experience and the quality of your previous work.
Our application process
1. Show us your work
Send a short introduction, your earliest possible start date and three to five videos you’ve created to [email protected]. Tell us which parts you handled: concept, filming, editing or presenting. Feel free to include a link to your own social media account.
2. Let’s meet
During the interview, we’ll discuss your experience, your ideas for Lystio and how you work.
3. Create two short test videos
If it feels like a good fit on both sides, shortlisted candidates will complete a paid practical assignment consisting of two videos:
- A property showcase: Film our office or your own apartment, for example, and edit the footage into an engaging walkthrough. We want to see your eye for angles, camera movement and editing.
- An original video: Come up with an interesting concept and create a video featuring yourself on camera. Whether it’s a POV, selfie-style video or an informative clip, show us your style and how you capture attention.
We’ll agree on the scope and timeframe together beforehand. We’re interested in both the quality of your work and how efficiently you take an idea through to a finished video.
We’ll then give you feedback and ask for a short revision, so we can see how you incorporate feedback into your content.
