About the Role

Fotografiska is more than a museum—it’s a dynamic cultural destination where photography, art, music, design, and gastronomy come together. Founded in Stockholm and now with locations in cities like New York, Tallinn, and Berlin, Fotografiska is driven by a mission to inspire a more conscious world through the power of visual storytelling. We believe in creativity with purpose and in fostering a workplace that’s inclusive, collaborative, and full of energy. Join us in shaping meaningful experiences for our communities through art.

We are launching a new digital-first platform dedicated to emerging image-makers, with a strong link to Fotografiska’s museum network and cultural mission. This role brings together editorial leadership, curatorial vision, and platform development—anchored in a deep understanding of artistic ecosystems and digital storytelling.

You will work at the intersection of photography, culture, and creative technology—curating artists, developing content formats, and shaping a distinctive editorial voice. You will also support community engagement, content production across channels, and the early growth of an international artist network. Beyond the platform itself, your work may extend to digital exhibitions, web editorial for fotografiska.com, and collaborative museum-led curatorial projects.

Opportunity: Entry at part-time employment, with the possibility to move into a full-time in 2026.
