CBC Saskatchewan is looking for the next Host / Producer of CBC News Saskatchewan - our supper hour and late night news program. You will lead the editorial direction of the newscast and are responsible for the overall quality of the program. Working closely with the assignment desk, you will strategically program strong visual treatments of the day’s most compelling storytelling.

You thrive in the fast-paced, high-pressure world of a multi-platform newsroom. You are just as comfortable working to the tight deadlines of our multiple daily news video deliveries as you are with deliverables on a longer timeline.

You are comfortable going on the air live at any time, reacting to breaking news and changing events, updating and remaking content as needed.

You understand the diverse and changing population of Saskatchewan and the importance of reflecting all our communities in our content. You appreciate the range of perspectives that people hold and believe in the importance of giving voice to those perspectives.

You demonstrate and promote the values of an inclusive and respectful work culture.

You will uphold all CBC journalistic standards and ensure that our stories are fair, balanced, accurate, impartial, and told with integrity.

You will play a key role in helping us connect with and grow new audiences through public events and community engagement.
