- A strong desire to live and promote the values of diversity and an inclusive and respectful work culture.
- Possession of a valid driver’s licence and a driving record that meets the minimum requirements of CBC/Radio-Canada's insurance company.
- University degree in journalism or equivalent wa minimum of three years of recent, related experience.
