  • Ensure compliance with environmental and social regulations, including climate-related disclosure requirements.
  • Operational Sustainability & Risk Management

  • Lead initiatives to reduce the carbon footprint across operations, including energy efficiency, waste reduction, and sustainable procurement.
  • Conduct environmental risk assessments and develop mitigation strategies for all project activities, particularly in high-risk operations.
  • Design and implement management systems to ensure compliance with local, provincial, and federal regulations.
  • Conduct audits, inspections, and incident investigations to uphold health and safety standards and ensure the well-being of employees and contractors.
  • ESG Integration, Culture & Continuous Improvement

  • Develop and deliver training programs that promote a culture of safety and environmental responsibility.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate ESG considerations across all project phases.
  • Analyze performance data, set benchmarks, and drive continuous improvement in ESG outcomes.
  • Basic Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science, Sustainability, Occupational Health and Safety, Engineering, or a related field.
  • Minimum 5 years of experience in ESG strategy implementation, preferably in energy, industrial, or infrastructure sectors.
  • Proven track record of developing and executing ESG initiatives with measurable impact.
  • Strong knowledge of environmental regulations, sustainability metrics, and ESG best practices.
  • Experience with regulatory compliance and HSE program management in Canada, particularly Alberta, is a strong asset.
  • Familiarity with ESG frameworks such as TCFD, SASB, GRI.
  • Ability to work onsite 1–2 times per week as needed.
  • Preferred Skills & Experience

  • Certifications such as CRSP, CSP, ISO 14001, or LEED are highly desirable.
  • Previous experience as a Sustainability Manager or Environmental Compliance Manager.
  • Exceptional analytical, problem-solving, and strategic planning abilities.
