About You

Do you love when you get that perfect image? One that fully encapsulates the emotions you want to convey in an image. Do you love when you finish a perfect edit, and just know that’s an image that people will love?

Looking to be an integral part of an amazing team, have your voice heard, and feel like you belong?

DFYNE may be the place for you.

About DFYNE

A picture paints a thousand words… and we’re sure you don’t want to be sat here reading an essay of corporate “about us” spiel…. Seriously, how’re you able to really get under the skin of what we’re about from a few words on a screen? So why don’t you have a look and see what we’re all about for yourself.

About The Role - DFYNE Your Career

First off, it’s best I introduce myself (person behind the keyboard here). It's not the norm on a job role spec, but I feel it’s important for this one in particular. I’m Oscar, the CEO and Founder here at DFYNE.

You’ll be working closely with the wider photography/imaging and marketing teams to plan, implement and execute incredible imagery for product shots, campaigns, and have the opportunity to work with some of the best equipment on the market, as well as travel the world for events and much more.

I’m looking for someone who sees things differently. Who can feel the brand and communicate this through imagery.

• Trustworthy
• Proactive and efficient
• Calm under pressure
• Reliable and responsive

Key Responsibilities

• Plan photoshoots in line with company activity and campaign concepts
• Identify the right models for each shoot and campaign, to ensure that imagery aligns with our campaign and brand DNA
• Identify shoot locations for each campaign, alongside our campaign managers
• Keep track of all photography equipment and ensure it is in good working order
• Shoot product and brand campaigns, social media, digital and ecommerce imagery
• Edit all imagery in a timely fashion to the required aspect ratios for all campaigns
• Lead in collaboratively growing and developing the team, in skill, confidence and creative output

Skills

• Organised and always strive to improve the visual identity of DFYNE
• In-depth knowledge of professional photography, lighting and Adobe Creative Suite
• Ability to use professional photography equipment - speed lights, lens choice, lens filters, and full understanding of how to achieve a photo brief
• Ability to hit deadlines for visual assets (campaign, ecommerce, social) and edit them to a high standard in a timely manner
• Proficiency using Canon equipment and studio lighting

Experience Needed

Absolutely none. We don’t hire only on experience, but a background in photography is desirable for this role.

So, what’s in it for you?

If you’ve made it this far down without being put off, brilliant, I’d love to hear from you.

Besides a work family and a great place to work, you’ll have an opportunity to grow with the company, be a part of the journey, and have a vital input into helping continue the crazy growth we’ve already seen.

You’ll be part of a high challenge; high reward culture.
