• Provide ongoing stewardship of the investment portfolio, monitoring the performance of active investments and partnerships, identifying emerging risks, and recommending mitigation strategies as needed.
• Provide end-to-end commercial support, including the structuring of deals, negotiation of partnership agreements, and coordination of internal and external advisors to advance transactions.
• Lead or support the negotiation of commercial terms for investment opportunities, joint ventures, partnerships, and other strategic agreements.
• Develop and manage key external relationships relevant to commercial negotiations and investment activities.
• Work cross-functionally with internal teams to ensure alignment with financial, legal, regulatory, and operational requirements.
• Collaborate with business units and Corporate Strategy to assess new technologies, market entry strategies, and long-term business development opportunities aligned with OPG’s enterprise growth plan.
• Contribute to briefing reports, market research, and strategy documents to support executive decision-making.
• Drive collaboration between the Business Strategy, Commercial Management, Finance, and Legal teams to ensure seamless execution of investment and partnership initiatives

What makes a career at OPG different?

With operations across Ontario, OPG is one of the most diverse power producers in North America. As the largest generator in Ontario, we meet approximately 50% of the province’s electricity needs, largely from low-carbon sources like nuclear and hydro.

As we work to achieve our vision of Electrifying life in one generation, OPG and our family of companies are also helping advance the development of new low-carbon technologies such as Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), refurbishment projects, and electrification initiatives to help power the growing demands of a growing economy. Join OPG and make history.

Please submit your application online at https://jobs.opg.com/. OPG thanks all those who apply; however, only candidates considered for an interview will be contacted.

Please note: All job postings at OPG are to fill existing vacancies within our organization.

OPG may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools as part of the applicant screening process. However, applications will also be reviewed by a member of our Recruitment team to ensure a fair and thorough assessment.

The base salary range considers many factors including, but not limited to experience, education, and training, including any collective agreement requirements for union represented positions. It is not typical for the salary to be offered near the top of the range, and salary is dependent on numerous factors. For management roles, the base salary range does not represent the total compensation package. The total compensation package for regular full-time management roles includes pay-for-performance programs for annual and medium time periods. Maintaining a high-performance culture and excellence is a core expectation of every member of our leadership team and is rewarded through the established compensation framework.

OPG is committed to employment equity. As such, we encourage applicants from equity-seeking communities (Indigenous Peoples, racialized persons, persons with disabilities, and women). We strongly believe that alleviating the under-representation of equity-seeking individuals will create a stronger OPG team and allow us to better serve the needs of our diverse communities.

In order to fulfill the above-mentioned purpose, priority in hiring may be given to qualified persons who self-identify as a member of equity-seeking groups as identified in the application process. This initiative constitutes a special program under the Human Rights Code/Canadian Human Rights Act.
