  • Positive attitude with the ability to self-motivate and contribute to a collaborative team culture.
  • Demonstrated experience in communication strategies and tactics, including media and public relations.
  • Strong understanding of the media landscape, particularly in British Columbia.
  • Exceptional oral and written communication skills.
  • Strong editing skills and attention to detail.
  • Excellent organizational, project management, problem-solving, and analytical abilities.
  • Ability to produce quality results under pressure and meet deadlines.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build and maintain positive relationships.
  • Proven ability to develop creative solutions to challenges and manage issues effectively.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office tools, including PowerPoint, Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams, and SharePoint.
