CHEK NEWS is Your Island's Own -- independent and employee-owned!

CHEK has served Vancouver Island since 1956. It was the first private TV station in BC. In
September 2009, with overwhelming community support, CHEK employees and local
investors purchased the station to ensure the Island's most watched news remained on-air. In
recognition, CHEK News employees were honored with a national award for Journalistic
Integrity by the Canadian Journalism Foundation.

Applicants from other stations should be aware that the position will be filled on a new-hire basis. Our employees,
by way of this job posting, have been made aware that this career opportunity exists.
