(1) Senior Producer, Your World Tonight (Weekend) 

Your World Tonight is looking for a Senior Producer to lead a critical CBC News program on the weekends. We know the news agenda doesn’t take weekends off, and we’re looking for a leader who thrives on domestic and international news and enjoys working with a small but dedicated team. 

This five-month backfill position in Toronto is to cover a departmental staff move. The work week is compressed, with the Thursday and Friday shifts preparing the weekend broadcast, followed by shifts on Saturday and Sunday taking YWT to air.  

About the Show

Your World Tonight, heard seven days a week, is our evening radio news program and a top podcast that is committed to delivering the best of the CBC's journalism and audio storytelling from Canada and around the world - covering news as it happens and giving Canadians the context they need to understand it. Rooted in the day's news, YWT cuts through the noise, giving Canadians a better understanding of how their country and their world is changing. 

About the Role

The position requires demonstrated experience leading a news program, which includes the shaping (planning and coordinating content) and production (vetting content, overseeing the sound and tone of the show) of a broadcast program, as well as ensuring YWT meets CBC’s Journalistic Standards and Practices. 

The Senior Producer is responsible for a variety of tasks, including, but not limited to:

About You

• You have a deep interest and understanding in the big stories of our day, from Canadian politics, U.S.-Canada relations to what’s going on in the Middle East and around the world

• You have experience leading a program: planning daily broadcasts, working with assignment teams, assigning show staff, vetting items for broadcast and overseeing a show as it goes to air and uploaded online.

• You enjoy leading a team in a collaborative manner that fosters an open environment that encourages input from all team members

• You are engaged, interested and immersed in the diversity of experiences that make up contemporary Canada. You will encourage members of the team to bring their life experiences, perspectives and expertise to the program, with the goal of enriching the team and the content of YWT

• You are a critical thinker and can sift through complex layers of a story and the spin surrounding it

• You have experience in working with audio, including mixing and putting together compelling audio – including an interest in what makes an effective news podcast 

Does this sound interesting to you? Please email Managing Editor Derek Stoffel and explain briefly why Your World Tonight is a solid fit for you. 

Please do so by the end of day on Wednesday, October 1. Include your CV, and put Expression of Interest in the subject header.
