Work at CBC/Radio-Canada

At CBC/Radio-Canada, we create content that informs, entertains and connects Canadians on multiple platforms. Our successes and accomplishments are driven by embodying and upholding values, which include creativity, integrity, inclusiveness and relevance.

Do you think you have the ability and drive to keep up with this exciting, ever-changing industry? Whether it be in front of the camera, on air, online or behind the scenes, you would be joining a team that thrives on making connections and telling stories that are important to Canadians.

CBC News Podcasts is looking for an Associate Producer with expertise in podcast editing and sound design, and a passion for CBC's news storytelling. This work supports the CBC News Podcasting strategy, which exists to reach new audiences for CBC's journalism in the podcast and digital audio space.

This is a 12 month temporary, full-time position, Monday to Friday, primarily daytime hours but with flexibility for working with team members coast-to-coast. It is a hybrid role, requiring you to be in the workplace at least three days a week, at any of CBC locations in Canada.

Canada's best journalism, on demand and delivered directly into your earholes.

Our mandate is to amplify our news journalism in the podcast space, and that means video and social media are key to our podcasting strategy.

We work with CBC teams in several ways;

• supporting our local This Is podcasts

This includes booking studios, recording interviews and troubleshooting technical issues with software/audio equipment, as well as working with producers to edit and mix podcast episodes, source music, archival tape and clips, suggest edits and respond to edit notes.

You are equally comfortable behind the board in studio, or using software to mix a multi-track audio documentary. You believe high quality audio is important, love using sound and music to elevate audio storytelling, and are excited to share your knowledge and experience with colleagues at different stages of their podcasting journey.

You are responsible for a variety of tasks, including but not limited to:

• With oversight from a CBC News Podcasts Exec or Senior Producer, contribute to the development and production of CBC News Podcast projects as needed
• Support CBC News teams in building podcast content from their original, enterprise and investigative journalism
• Coordinate and execute the recording and production of interviews for a podcast format
• Mix…
