SBS has launched the 2025 SBS journalism cadetship, a 12-month program.
From 2025 onwards, the cadetship will be dedicated to the memory of late SBS News journalist, Bridget Munro.
The cadetship offers journalism graduates an opportunity to gain hands-on experience in SBS’ cross-platform newsroom in Sydney, as well as placements in Melbourne and Canberra.
Cadets will work across a variety of SBS programs including Dateline, Insight, NITV News and current affairs, and SBS multilingual programs, ensuring a comprehensive development experience.
In 2025, SBS will offer three cadetship positions, including one identified placement for an Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander candidate, culturally and financially supported by NITV (National Indigenous Television).
All successful cadets participate in the same program of training and work experience.
SBS director of news and current affairs, Mandi Wicks, said the broadcaster is honoured to dedicate the SBS News and Current Affairs Cadetship to Munro.
"Her passion for journalism and mentorship was infectious and has left an indelible mark on SBS. We aim to continue Bridget’s legacy through this program," she said.
Applications for the SBS Journalism Cadetship are open until September 6 and the program will begin in February 2025.
