About the Opportunity:

Stocksy is an artist owned stock photography and cinematography cooperative. (Think more artist respect and support, less patchouli.) We believe in creative integrity, fair profit sharing, and co-ownership, with every voice being heard.

We offer all employees a collaborative open floor plan, a generous vacation and benefits package, a fully stocked kitchen, and a relaxing rooftop patio. We work hard, we play hard, and we dare you to keep up! (Seriously, we’re talking solid nerf battles when the clock hits 5:15pm.)

Based in beautiful Victoria, Stocksy HQ operates out of the historic Market Square building. Conveniently located within minutes of amazing restaurants, Victoria’s finest harbour views, and all major bus routes. You'll find everything you need nestled within a five minute walk, and a locked bike storage center (including showers) for employee's who prefer to bike.
