Media Manager jobs in Delhi at CryptoMize are open on a rolling, always-hiring basis — we staff planning capacity ahead of the next engagement, not after it lands. This is a full-time, permanent position with immediate joining, based at our New Delhi HQ, sitting inside the strategy cell that powers reputation, political, and brand engagements across our five intelligence domains. Below is the complete job description: the responsibilities you will own from day one, the requirements, the seniority path, and the selection process. Experienced planners who want their channel-mix recommendations to mean something — plans that shaped real reputation decisions, sequencing that won real crisis windows — should read to the end. The media manager desk runs engagement-anchored reviews weekly, with every deliverable examined against live client demand rather than internal calendars.

01The actual work
What will you actually do as a Media Manager at CryptoMize?
01
Build and keep the outlet map current — which desk, which editor, which reporter covers what, for every account the desk serves
02
Plan the coverage calendar around the news cycle: what gets pitched Monday, what holds for the Sunday editions, and what waits for its moment
03
Pitch and place stories directly with newsrooms — angles framed for the outlet's audience, not the client's vanity
04
Run press events end-to-end: briefings, tours, and availabilities — invitations, logistics, background rules, and the follow-up that turns attendance into coverage
05
Guard the relationships: corrections negotiated calmly, embargoes honored absolutely, and favors never taken from the wrong source
06
Prepare principals for press contact — briefing books, anticipated questions, and the two messages that must survive any interview
07
Track what the placements earned: tone, prominence, and permanence, reported against the plan the desk committed to
ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES
As a Media Manager at CryptoMize you will design channel-mix and sequencing plans for live engagements across reputation, political, and brand portfolios. The role translates engagement objectives into media architecture — channel selection, sequencing logic, budget framing — before any plan reaches a strategist for review.
Quality assurance is a standing duty rather than an occasional task: most organizations discover planning-quality problems when a campaign has already under-performed, but here managers intercept them upstream — in the channel-fit brief, the sequencing review, and the budget sanity check. You will maintain the audit trail that lets any plan we present be reconstructed decision by decision, on demand, in front of a client.
Managers here also carry institutional responsibility for the intern program: supervising scoped intern plans, reviewing their planning notes, and feeding intern conversion decisions. The managers who teach well are the ones we promote first, because the cell grows only as fast as its teaching culture.
