This permanent appointment will “serve as a skilled Photographer responsible for capturing dynamic still and DSLR video imagery for standalone and social media usage, and for use with articles.” They will also be responsible for managing and maintaining photographic equipment, supplies, and materials.

The role is based in Washington, DC and while no relocation expenses will be reimbursed, the position is on the GS 12 pay scale with a salary of $79,720 to $103,639 per year.
There is some travel required, but only 50% or less of the time, and you may be on call 24 hours a day. But, the opportunity is one that doesn’t come around very often. A spokesperson for Homeland Security told PetaPixel that the last time the position was offered was in 2004. To see if you’d be eligible, fill out this questionnaire, which is part of the application.
