We are looking to fill photography/videography position immediately. Candidates who have graphic design or writing skills is an added advantage. If you’re a creative, passionate, smart and self-driven person with a good level of commitment, get in touch with us.

A photographer's job encompasses more than just snapping a shutter; in fact, this often accounts for the least amount of time of the many duties in this line of work. Photographers are often also responsible for scheduling and setting up shoots, traveling to their subjects, maintaining equipment, record-keeping and image processing. Digital photographers will likely spend the most substantial amount of time on this last task, working with computer photo-editing software to prepare their final images. Those who choose to use film have the added step of deciding whether to develop the film themselves or to send it out.

Interviews will be held on Saturday, 17th March 2018. To apply, please email us your work portfolio, CV and a brief pitch for the job (include why you believe you’re qualified and previous experience along with anything else relevant) to creativebrands@harrietgroup. co.ke
