Job Description
We are hiring a

part-time Photographer

to join our team in Pocatello. This position may offer

full-time hours during periods of higher demand . Candidates who consistently meet our standards and demonstrate the ability to take on additional media responsibilities—such as videography and other types of client photography—may eventually be considered for a permanent full-time position with benefits.

This is not a studio-only role. It is a hands-on, primarily outdoor, fast-moving position that plays a critical role in how businesses—especially automotive dealerships—present their inventory and brands online.

If you enjoy being active, working independently, and producing consistent, high-quality images at scale, this may be a strong fit.

Position Overview
Approximately

70%–90% of your weekly time

will be dedicated to servicing the local dealerships we work with.

This includes:

Traveling between dealership locations
Photographing dealership vehicles according to our established process and required shot list
Maintaining consistency in angles, lighting, framing, image quality, and overall workflow
Returning to the Manticore office to edit photos efficiently
Uploading finalized images to dealership websites according to the required specifications

The remaining

10%–30% of your weekly time

may involve:

Client promotional shoots
Team and employee photos
On-location business photography
Other photography and media-related marketing projects

Your ability to successfully support these additional types of media work will be an important factor in determining whether the role expands into full-time employment.

Work Environment & Expectations
This is primarily an

outdoor position.

Pocatello’s weather is unpredictable and includes hot summers, cold winters, wind, rain, and snow. You must be willing and able to:

Work in extreme cold and extreme heat
Continue working during light rain or snow when safety, equipment, and image quality are not affected
Maintain productivity despite uncomfortable weather conditions

This is also an active, physical role. You will be on your feet for much of the day and regularly moving around dealership lots.

Must-Have Qualifications (Non-Negotiables)
If you do not meet these requirements, please do not apply.

A photography portfolio you can share with your application
Valid driver’s license
Clean driving record with no accidents
Ability to drive a manual-transmission vehicle, as some dealership vehicles have manual transmissions
Working knowledge of DSLR or mirrorless camera fundamentals, including shutter speed, aperture, ISO, and white balance
Physical ability to:
Walk approximately 1–3 miles per day
Bend and squat repeatedly and with ease
Lift and carry up to 50 pounds

Ability and willingness to work in extreme hot and cold weather conditions

What We’re Looking For
Strong attention to detail and consistency
Ability to follow a structured photography process without cutting corners
Self-motivation and efficiency when working independently
Ability to move quickly without sacrificing image quality
Professional communication when interacting with clients and dealership staff
Reliability, punctuality, and the ability to complete work without constant supervision
Interest in developing additional photography, videography, and media-production skills

This role is about execution and reliability as much as creativity.

Compensation
Pay ranges from

$15.00–$19.00 per hour , depending on:
Schedule availability and ability to accept additional hours during periods of higher demand
Photography and media-production experience
Efficiency, consistency, and quality of work
Ability to successfully take on photography and media projects beyond dealership inventory

Performance-based bonuses and commission opportunities may also be available based on qualifying work, productivity, and company needs.

Why This Role Matters
Dealership inventory photography directly affects how vehicles are presented and sold online. The quality, consistency, and speed of your work can influence how quickly inventory moves.
