The J. Paul Getty Trust seeks an experienced and versatile visual storyteller to produce and manage photography assets for digital platforms including web and social media, as well as print publications like the magazine and calendar. This role is part of the Digital Content Strategy team in the Trust’s Communications Department, which creates and designs digital experiences around the visual arts and cultural heritage that uphold the Getty’s institutional vision.
The ideal candidate will have not only technical photographic expertise, but also a journalistic eye—able to find and communicate stories as they happen, elicit expressive reactions from those being photographed and tell the story of the Getty in a compelling visual way. The ideal candidate will also have experience developing and executing visual storytelling strategies for a variety of digital platforms, including web and social media, and will be equally adept at production, post-production, and asset management for the resulting photographs.
This is a full-time position reporting to the Lead Creative Producer.

- Oversee digital photography projects from conception through completion, serving at times as the primary contact for internal and external parties.
- Create and execute photography project proposals; develop and manage multiple concurrent project plans.
- Work with internal stakeholders to plan shoots—handling complexities of approvals, policies, and rights—and to circulate selects and proof sheets for approval.
- Perform post-processing on captured media.
- Serve as departmental resource for occasional color-correction, touchup, and other tasks for images sourced or created by colleagues.
- Ensure consistency of all photographic content with Getty brand, strategy, and design standards.
- Communicate to supervisor and team content plans and progress.
- Work diplomatically with stakeholders to accommodate rounds of review and edits, while keeping projects on schedule.
- Proactively communicate content plans and progress to supervisor and team.
