One story can change how someone understands their own neighborhood. That’s the job. CBS Colorado is looking for a full‑time photojournalist and editor who loves their craft — someone who chases the shot that makes a viewer stop scrolling and pay attention. You’ll work alongside reporters who move fast and expect the same from you, on deadlines that don’t bend. If that sounds less like pressure and more like exactly where you want to be, let’s talk.
WhatYou’ll Do
- Shoot assigned news and sports stories with a creative, clear, and accurate eye
- Gather breaking news as it happens, including live shots and live remote operation (LiveU)
- Set up lighting and audio as the situation calls for it, including individually running multiple cameras
- Edit daily stories under deadline pressure using non‑linear editing systems
- Build visually compelling stories that mean something to our viewers — for both broadcast and streaming platforms
- Generate digital content and edit vertical video for our digital and streaming apps
- Operate station vehicles safely, reporting maintenance issues to your supervisor
- Keep your gear in good working order and flag equipment problems early
- Hit newscast deadlines, every time
- Uphold journalistic, ethical, and professional standards consistent with our values
- Take on other newsroom duties as assigned
- 3‑5 years of experience pitching, shooting, writing, editing, and delivering video stories on deadline
- Working knowledge of ENG systems (Sony XDCAM, Sony FX9, or similar) and non‑linear editing tools (Avid, Grass Valley, Premiere Pro)
- A valid driver’s license (or ability to obtain one) with unrestricted ability to drive
- Ability to carry, shoulder, and shoot with a broadcast ENG camera (25 lbs.+) plus support gear like tripods and lights
- Availability for weekends, long hours, or varying shifts as needed to hit broadcast deadlines — in all kinds of weather
- Strong collaboration and communication skills, and a genuine passion for news
