  • Actively contribute to a positive, collaborative, and inclusive work environment.
Qualifications

What you'll bring:

  • Demonstrated experience as a Journalist, camera operator, editor, or similar role.
  • The ability to develop and maintain a network of local contacts, and a proven talent for identifying stories of both local and national interest.
  • Strong on-camera presentation, a clear voice, and the willingness to report live when needed.
  • Excellent time management skills and a proven ability to consistently meet tight deadlines.
  • Deep knowledge and understanding of journalistic ethics, legal guidelines, and compliance requirements.
