What you will do:

• Work with a dynamic team to produce creative stories which capture daily life in Calgary.
• Come up with original story ideas and produce original stories that you will shoot and edit.
• Deliver stories which will stand out from the competition, emphasizing creativity over traditional methods.
• Your stories will be digital first, and will also deliver for all platforms (radio, TV and web).

What you will bring:

• A passion for storytelling - you know what makes a great story and know how to tell it.
• Ability to find original stories about people and issues which reflect Calgary’s exciting and diverse communities.

• Because news never stops - you are prepared to work evenings and weekends.
• Valid driver’s licence and clean driving record.

Here’s what you can expect in return:

• A manager who deeply cares about your development and long-term career at Rogers.
