It's an exciting time to join the team at Hydro One

This position will play a key role in advancing Hydro One's major capital projects, specifically engagements required to implement our new 50/50 equity model which will see First Nation's communities becoming equal owners in all transmission line projects over $100 million.

  • Contribute to the development and oversight of Indigenous Relations budgets for major capital projects.
  • Work to proactively address issues and concerns raised by Indigenous communities in an effective and timely manner in support of advancement of Hydro One projects.
  • Provide advice on Indigenous Relations opportunities and issues to Hydro One staff and prepare recommendations in support of project execution, as required. Organize and execute consultation activities, e.g., public information centers, community meetings and community events that support Hydro One projects.
  • Work to ensure all project regulatory commitments/conditions are fulfilled and that Hydro One delivers on all other commitments made to Indigenous communities as part of project advancement.
  • Work in collaboration with other lines of business to maximize Indigenous procurement on projects.
  • Other duties as assigned.

Selection Criteria:

  • Knowledge and experience working in Indigenous communities across Canada and knowledge of community engagement strategies, approaches, and tactics.
  • Significant experience working on major and/or capital projects involving complex strategies, milestones, construction schedules, and regulatory timelines.
  • University Degree or College Diploma with 5+ years of experience and a successful record of developing and delivering major and/or capital projects.
  • Lived experiences working or living in an Indigenous community will also be considered an asset.
  • Experience managing, mentoring, and motivating a team; excellent organization skills.
  • A demonstrated history of effective time management, coordination with stakeholders, and managing (internal or external) expectations.
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills; proven track record of working cross-functionally to achieve project results and manage budgets.
  • Strong analytical, creative, and strategic skills; solid negotiating, influencing, and decision-making abilities.
  • Strong team player with exceptional interpersonal skills and a demonstrated ability to work well with others.

At Hydro One, we understand that the success and strength of our business rests with our people. When we develop their skills, we are investing in both their success and ours. To secure the best talent, we seek to create a workforce that reflects the diverse populations of the communities where we live and work and to create a culture based on safety, innovation, and inclusiveness.
