About this role
Working as a Camera Operator at 40/29 means managing the technical backbone of live television news production. You'll operate broadcast cameras during newscasts, handle audio console responsibilities, manage studio lighting, and prepare video for air using Windows-based software—all while staying responsive to the unpredictable demands of live broadcasting. The role requires close collaboration with directors, producers, and on-air talent, and you'll need to troubleshoot issues as they happen during transmission.
This is a part-time position based in the station's Rogers studio, with shifts that can begin as early as 3:30am and include weekends and holidays to support round-the-clock operations. You'll spend 2–3 hours at a time standing while working, and the job occasionally involves climbing ladders up to 15 feet and lifting 25 pounds. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience operating professional video cameras in live settings, familiarity with robotic camera systems, working knowledge of studio lighting, and the ability to manage Windows software. Flexibility, punctuality, and the capacity to adapt quickly when unexpected situations arise on air are essential.
