What you bring
- Combination of education and experience equivalent to a university degree plus three years’ practical, relevant experience, or a college diploma and five years’ practical, relevant experience.
- Ability to generate, pitch and pursue strong, original stories.
- Excellent command of French; working knowledge of English (comprehension and expression).
- Excellent knowledge of central and northern Alberta communities, and specifically their French-speaking residents.
- 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.
- Experience in gathering and editing audio, and shooting and editing video, and the technical know-how to troubleshoot when things go wrong.
- Ability to present stories live on-air, from within the studio and out in the field.
- 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 Radio-Canada platforms.
- Ability to forge positive team relationships and keen to work on a team that values collaboration and transparency.
- Strong desire to live and promote the values of diversity and an inclusive and respectful work culture.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; strong team player.
- Ability to work independently with superior problem-solving skills.
