  • University degree in journalism or equivalent with a minimum of three years of recent, related experience in a multiplatform newsroom.

  • You care about the people you work with and have a deep appreciation for different perspectives, opinions, and experiences. You live and promote the values of diversity, inclusion, and respectful work culture.

  • Ability to generate, pitch and pursue strong, original story ideas.

  • Strong proven connection to the underrepresented communities in B.C.

  • Demonstrated professional experience using various news platforms, including digital, social, radio and television.

  • Ability to disseminate complex information to a general audience and across all platforms.

  • Ability to present stories live on-air.

  • Ability to work in high-pressure environments, with considerable deadline constraints and a significant degree of public scrutiny.

  • Willingness to learn and tackle new tasks across all CBC platforms.

  • Ability to forge positive team relationships and keen to work on a team that values collaboration and transparency. Strong communication and interpersonal skills.

  • Possession of a valid driver’s licence as well as a driving record that meets the minimum requirements of CBC/Radio-Canada's insurance company; other classes considered an asset.
