Hourly Paid Lecturer - Photography

This includes 2 or more of the following elements: teaching, preparation and marking of the scheduled programme of work. A flat rate of £20.72 per direct teaching hour will be paid for completing one of the above elements of the schedule. The number of hours required and the days of the week may vary.

We're seeking innovative and passionate individuals to contribute to our growing portfolio of photography courses—programs designed to broaden and challenge conventional definitions of what the photographer of the near future might be.

Successful candidates will have academic HE experience and a proven background within the photographic industry. They will have not only a working knowledge and understanding of current industry practice and trends, but also be able to model the important interpersonal skills fundamental to the ethos of our courses: communication, connection, collaboration and kindness.

We're especially keen to connect with people who have experience or curiosity in both traditional and emerging forms of:

Capture
From analogue and digital stills to moving images, sound capture, drone piloting—and ideally extending into 3D capture, virtual production, and in-game image-making.

Creation
Whether you're working with studio/location lighting or pushing boundaries with 3D environments and AI prompt-engineering, we're interested in your approach to crafting imagery and visual storytelling.

Editing
From traditional darkroom and alternative processes to cutting-edge digital workflows—both still and moving image, GIFs and 3D—as well as sound editing.

Publication & Engagement
This might include bookmaking, zines, printing, framing, web design, streaming, or immersive platforms and games.

We'd also love to work with people with experience in commissioning as Photo Editors, Art Buyers, Creative Directors and the wider associated roles within the photographic industry.

We'll still consider applications even if you don't meet every single one of the requirements, so don't be put off if you don't match them perfectly.
