Based at Fisher Studios, Oxford (OX4 1LF) Salary: £29,250 base + £5000 typical out-of-hours bonuses. First review at 3 months.
Fisher Studios is Oxford’s leading commercial photography studio. We work with the University of Oxford, its colleges and departments, local businesses and cultural organisations to deliver photography across events, portraits, product, architecture and the arts.
We’re a tight team of seven, based in a modern East Oxford studio, and we’re looking for an eighth: someone with 5 years’ plus professional experience who wants the stability of a full-time role that still provides the variety of work that you may have enjoyed as a freelancer.
What you’ll be doing
Day to day you’ll shoot across our core areas — events, portraits, architecture/interiors and product — working directly with clients and representing the studio on-site. Most jobs are reached by bike around Oxford, with some driving required for shoots further afield or when transporting extensive kit. Occasionally shoots take place at our studio too. No two weeks look the same.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we’re looking for
- 5 years’ plus experience as a working photographer, with a portfolio including events and portraits. Examples of architecture/interiors, product and/or theatre would be an added advantage.
- Confident representing the studio with clients, independently and under pressure
- Organised — comfortable managing several active projects at once
- For practicality based locally, in easy reach of Oxford, or able to relocate to Oxford
- Comfortable cycling to most jobs around the city, with a full UK driving licence for occasions when driving is needed
- Comfortable working evenings and weekends, as the work demands
- Someone who is happy to come into the office everyday
