Ishan Sharma, a Bengaluru-based YouTuber, who was once a techie, is grabbing headlines because of his offer of “top market salary + % of the revenue I make” for a chief of staff role. His social-media post says he wants a suitable candidate for the role based in Bengaluru and also makes it clear that it is a very responsible and extremely important position for which he will pay an attractive salary, along with a share in the revenue he earns. However, he does not specify the exact package in his post.
Only experienced professionals possessing top content-marketing skills, writing skills as well as design and editing skills are preferred by Ishan Sharma. The ideal candidate should be capable of leading a team of writers, designers and editors, while also helping Sharma create content on YouTube and other social-media platforms such as Twitter, LinkedIn and Instagram.
