Media Manager - Photographer

WHAT DOES THIS JOB INVOLVE?

Our Media Managers are responsible for documenting the entire 3 week summer school from both the students and staff point of view through photography.

You will be taking photos in classes, at outdoor activities, evening events and on cultural trips and activities. Photos will need to be uploaded to Facebook albums on a daily basis.

ISSOS will also provide a set list of photographs that will be needed of specific student groups. Our Head Office manages the main social media feeds, while you will be responsible for Instagram and Facebook Stories, as well as creating engaging content for TikTok.

As the Media Manager, you will be responsible for managing your own time and for making sure all media content is edited and uploaded as soon as possible. All of our summer positions are fully residential and this position is a fantastic opportunity to get involved with all aspects of the summer school and truly help to make memories for our students and staff teams.
