This position is new to CBC in the Maritimes. The producer will create journalistic content in innovative and engaging ways that is relevant and reflective of the people who live in the Maritime provinces. The producer will build relationships with people in underserved communities and design initiatives that bring compelling stories and contributors from those communities to the local programming at CBC (audio, video, and text). Sometimes the producer will be responsible for producing their own content, reports and stories. Other times the producer will be coaching and developing content creators from inside and outside of CBC.

The position calls for a storyteller with a curiosity about people, who is comfortable working with technology to produce audio, visual and text-based content. While the producer does not lead a dedicated team, they collaborate with journalists and programmers at CBC stations across the Maritime provinces to design the team they need for different projects. The producer must be comfortable working autonomously, building relationships and planning projects. They know how to engage others, how to set goals and use data to measure success. Creativity is a must. So is a commitment to learning from and with others.
