Premier Christy Clark has hired former CTV news anchor Pamela Martin to be her new director of outreach.
Martin, who started the job on Wednesday, will make an annual salary of $130,000.
A job description for the role says Martin will develop Clark’s “vision of creating open government by reaching out to British Columbians.”

It also says Martin will “improve public awareness and engagement and ensure communication is a two-way conversation,” and that she will “help the public’s concerns be translated into action by sharing with the Premier the challenge British Columbians face navigating government.”
Martin will also be expected to coordinate events that will make government more accessible, such as town hall meetings for Clark.
Martin was formerly the co-anchor for CTV’s evening local news. She worked on Clark’s leadership campaign as the chair of membership.
