Your role:

Are you an exceptional daily news journalist who thrives in the fast-paced, high-pressure world of live, breaking news?

CBC Edmonton is looking for an experienced news editor/presenter to lead our weekday morning newscasts to audiences listening live on the radio and on digital platforms.

As the morning newsreader, you will play an integral editorial and leadership role in gathering, preparing and presenting the daily news, keeping our audiences informed about what’s happening now in Edmonton and northern Alberta. You will also work closely with the team programming Edmonton AM, our morning current affairs radio program, both on-air during news breaks and live interactions, and off-air to coordinate coverage.

You’re the kind of journalist who loves the adrenaline rush of chasing breaking news and you’re not intimidated by the prospect of changing lineups and rewriting newscasts under very tight deadlines. You embrace the challenge of keeping your newscasts as up-to-date as possible, chasing stories yourself and working to add context and additional content to ensure listeners get the full story.

You understand the diverse and changing population in Edmonton and northern Alberta, and the importance of broadening the range of perspectives, experiences and points of view reflected on our programming, especially those from people who have been traditionally underrepresented in the media. In your work, you will ensure CBC journalistic standards are met and that our stories are fair, balanced, accurate, thoughtful and immediate.

This role requires full-time on-site presence.

Note: The successful candidate will generally be assigned to work weekdays, 4:30 am to 12:45 p.m.

This is a temporary position, from August 2025 to September 2026.
