President & Chief Executive Officer
Utilities Kingston
Location: Kingston, Ontario
Utilities Kingston is a unique multi-utility provider in Ontario, delivering water, wastewater, natural gas, electricity, and telecommunications services through an integrated model. With a dedicated team of almost 300 employees and a strong reputation for safe, reliable and affordable service, the organization plays an important role supporting approximately 140,000 customers and the growth and quality of life of the Kingston community.
Reporting to the Boards of Directors, the President & CEO will provide the strategic, operational and cultural leadership of Utilities Kingston and play a critical leadership role as President & CEO of Kingston Hydro. The incoming CEO joins a highly respected organization at an important point in its evolution, with a mandate shaped by community growth, significant infrastructure requirements, and a changing regulatory and utility landscape.
Working closely with both Boards, Council as shareholder, and the City of Kingston, the CEO will set long-term direction, translate strategy into disciplined execution, and ensure infrastructure and capital priorities position the organization to meet future needs. They will lead and develop a high-performing executive team and champion thoughtful innovation and continuous improvement while preserving Utilities Kingston’s strong record of operational excellence.
The CEO will also serve as a visible ambassador and public face of Utilities Kingston, building trusted relationships with the City, Council, regulators, employees, customers, industry partners and the broader community. An accomplished communicator, they will be comfortable representing the organization in public and stakeholder settings and translating complex strategic, technical and regulatory matters into clear and compelling messages.
The ideal candidate is an accomplished executive with experience leading in a complex, regulated, infrastructure-intensive or public service environment. They bring strong strategic, financial and business judgement, experience working with Boards and diverse stakeholders, and exceptional communication skills, executive presence and political acumen. Collaborative and pragmatic, they will be able to build consensus across differing interests, navigate complexity and lead meaningful change while maintaining the confidence of employees and stakeholders. Experience in regulated utilities, municipal services or another asset-intensive sector would be considered an asset.
