Reporter-Editor, Terrace, British Columbia

Are you an ambitious self-starter and collaborative team player who is passionate about local news and current events and has a strong interest in uncovering issues that matter to your audience?

CBC News is looking for an experienced multiplatform reporter to join our team as part of an expansion in approximately two dozen communities across the country. This role is focused on broadening CBC’s news coverage in Canada, ensuring stories and voices from these communities are reflected in our journalism across digital, radio, social, streaming and TV.

In this role, you will operate independently under the direction of the assignment desk’s coordinating producer in your regional station. As such, you’ll need to be someone with a lot of initiative, who is comfortable working solo to get things done, and is able to build collaborative relationships with your producers and teammates in the regional station.

You will put audience needs at the centre of your journalism, ensuring your work highlights a broad range of perspectives, experiences and points of view, especially those from people who have been traditionally underrepresented in the media. You will regularly find opportunities to meet new people and expand your network of contacts.

You will ensure that all CBC journalistic standards are met and that our stories are fair, balanced, accurate, thoughtful, immediate and resonate with the communities we serve.
