You will equip students with high-level digital skills and support student learning through informal and formal training and instruction, and help develop proficiency in highly specialised techniques, production methods, and technology within photography and moving image.

You will also take responsibility for the daily running of a specific area within the College, including the use and booking of specialist facilities, such as the Photogrammetry Studio, as well as contribute to the development of the programme area and curriculum development.
