The Evan Bray Show is Saskatchewan’s leading province-wide talk show. It’s also a fairly new show. We’re searching for a full-time producer who can help take it to the next level.
You have an assignment editor’s brain; you’re plugged into the issues. You read op-ed pieces to relax. You have epic organizing skills, some people might even consider you a bit bossy. You know it’s just that you like things done right.
The producer’s job is to find guests, topics and ways to frame debate to ensure the show is compelling, interesting and entertaining. The show covers everything from politics to social issues to pop culture. Great producers aren’t afraid to make cold calls and understand sometimes the show suddenly shifts to breaking news.
Understanding how to utilize social media to enhance the show’s reach, and provide content is important.
Previous producing experience would be an important asset. A journalism degree is helpful, but most of all, you should be curious, driven and excited for a role that can be challenging and rewarding. This position is based in Regina, applicants must be able to work in Canada.
