This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic and diverse team at the forefront of climate change adaptation, focused on improving the well-being of communities and the environment.

  • Providing technical expertise to government and municipalities on understanding risks and options to adapt;
  • Identifying and recommending opportunities to address flooding that meet government priorities;
  • Supporting or leading initiatives to reduce flood risks (e.g., climate and coastal plan actions);
  • Coordinating efforts across internal partners and collaborating with municipalities and other external partners;
  • Communicating technical information in accessible ways to diverse audiences;
  • Representing the Province in external flood-related working groups and/or associations;
  • All aspects of project management, including administration, budgets, partnerships, evaluation, and reporting;
  • Performing other related duties, as assigned.

You have:

  • Demonstrated experience using data, technical expertise, and other evidence to understand problems and identify potential solutions;
  • Expert knowledge of coastal and inland flood mechanisms and risks;
  • Demonstrated understanding of the range of nature-based, infrastructure, and policy solutions to address flooding that can work at provincial and local scales;
  • Experience in conducting or significantly contributing to the assessment of coastal and inland flood hazards/risks in relation to social, built, and natural climate vulnerabilities;
  • Experience in managing spatial datasets and using spatial analysis software, such as ArcGIS suite;
  • Attention to detail, excellence in listening and facilitation, project management, time management, and ability to synthesize technical information and communicate to diverse audiences;
  • Experience working with municipalities and the ability to build relationships with diverse partners on shared challenges and consider equity.
