JOB DESCRIPTION

The Local Programming Initiatives team at FOX 26 Houston is looking for a Local Programming Initiatives Photographer who is passionate about visual storytelling and willing to create content across live streaming, digital, social media and linear TV.

In this role, you’ll shoot, edit, produce and help direct content for both LPI programming and FOX 26 News, including The Isiah Factor Uncensored, The Nightcap, Chattin’ With Chelsea, FOX Faceoff and FOX NYE Live! You must also be willing to take on general assignment news and help cover severe weather, breaking news, special coverage and other major stories when needed.

Here’s what you’ll need to be successful in this role:

  • A multiplatform mindset. You’re a strong visual storyteller who understands that content is no longer created for just one screen. You can shoot and edit content for streaming, digital, social and linear TV and adapt your storytelling for each platform.
  • Strong photography and editing skills. You understand professional cameras, lighting, audio and visual composition and have experience editing with EDIUS and/or Adobe Premiere Pro.
  • A live and digital mindset. You’re comfortable with live television, bonded cellular technology and evolving digital workflows. You’re ready to be a strong contributor to our live digital news streaming platforms and understand the urgency of getting compelling content to viewers now.
  • The ability to do more. You’re willing to help produce segments or shows, develop ideas and direct live programming as needed. You must also be comfortable and willing to appear on camera when the content or assignment calls for it. Experience with Ross OverDrive and/or TriCaster is preferred, and you’re willing to train and expand your skills.
  • A willingness to evolve. You’re highly adaptable, embrace change and aren’t tied to traditional television workflows. You think outside the box, bring creative ideas to the table and are comfortable using emerging technology and AI tools such as ChatGPT and Claude to improve workflows, research, ideation and content production.
  • A competitive, winning mindset. You take ownership of your work, thrive in a fast-paced environment and want to help create content that stands out across every platform.

You must have 3–5 years of professional broadcast or multiplatform content production experience, including professional newsroom experience. A high school diploma or equivalent is required; a college degree is preferred. You must have a valid driver’s license with a clean driving record and be able to lift, carry and maneuver up to 50 lbs. of field production equipment.

This position primarily works Monday through Friday, but you must be willing to work weekends, holidays, breaking news, severe weather and special events as needed and participate in a rotating on-call schedule. Occasional travel may be required.

We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, gender identity, disability, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law. We will consider for employment qualified applicants with criminal histories consistent with applicable law.

Pursuant to state and local pay disclosure requirements, the pay rate/range for this role, with final offer amount dependent on education, skills, experience, and location is $31.00-32.45 per hour. This role is also eligible for various benefits, including medical/dental/vision, insurance, a 401(k) plan, paid time off, and other benefits in accordance with applicable plan documents.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
