CBC Saskatchewan is hiring a reporter-editor for our new bureau in Yorkton, an area with a large agricultural and manufacturing base putting it at the centre of conversations that shape local, provincial and geopolitical trade and economic security.
Adaptability is key to the role of reporter-editor. One day you could be covering a hyper-local story that matters to local residents, or working behind the scenes to line up interviews for a morning radio program. The next day you could be covering a federal announcement on agricultural support, or contributing to broadcast and digital platforms live. Central to all of your coverage is ensuring voices from the region are reflected in our journalism across digital, radio, social, streaming and TV.
As the base for the Yorkton Tribal Council, representing six member Treaty 4 First Nations, your reporting will also play a key role in the CBC News strategy to connect and amplify Indigenous content to audiences in Saskatchewan and across Canada.
In this role, you'll operate independently, under the direction of the CBC Saskatchewan assignment desk. While you're comfortable taking the initiative and working solo to get things done, you will have a lot of daily support from your colleagues at both the CBC Saskatoon and Regina stations. We're a collaborative group, here to support you in your daily assignment. You will also have access to ongoing training opportunities to support your development with CBC News.
Affordable housing, short commutes and easy-access to year round activities make this an ideal location for those looking for work-life balance. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the easy access to parks, beaches, trails, fishing and wildlife. Home to North America's longest running film festival, Yorkton also has a vibrant cultural community.
The role requires you to be full-time on-site in our Yorkton bureau. You will be provided with a vehicle to get to stories throughout the region, which spans east central Saskatchewan and to the Manitoba border.
