We are looking for a cross platform reporter who will identify, set up and film their own stories providing content for TV, digital and radio platforms as appropriate.
The successful candidate will already have reporting experience and strong technical skills with experience of editing their own stories.

Knowledge of the military community would be an advantage. Good written and spoken English are essential.
Candidates for this post will also be expected to have a good knowledge of Scottish issues.
There will be a need for UK travel including overnights and it may be necessary to work at weekends or evening so flexibility and a full driving licence are required.
