Join us in shaping Canada's sustainable energy future

The Pembina Institute is seeking a highly motivated student to join our Communities and Decarbonization team, compromised of three program areas (Transportation, Buildings, and Equitable Transition) for a 16-week communications internship based out of any one of our five offices (Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa, Toronto). The internship, running from May to August 2026, will support our policy teams and communications leads.

Who we are
At the Pembina Institute, it's all hands on deck and it has been for the last 40+ years.

Our 55+ person team, distributed across the country, are passionate and dedicated, but we don't sweat the small stuff. We're too busy tackling one of the most important issues of our time: Canada's clean energy transition.

In that transition, we don't leave anyone behind and believe each member of our team plays a critical role in achieving our goals. We ensure equity but promote individuality. We lead with curiosity — challenging our own ideas and limiting beliefs, being open to diversity of thought and opinion. We use evidence-based thinking to inform our recommendations to decision-makers and understand that to make long-lasting changes, we need to take a practical approach when collaborating with others.

Our commitment to responsible development, and our "tough, but fair" approach, using research, consulting and convening, gives us credibility with decision-makers whose actions today are setting the direction for the planet. Are you ready to join us?

Meet the team
The Communities and Decarbonization team focuses on enabling effective energy use in buildings and vehicles across Canada, and advocates for effective climate and energy policies, along with regulatory improvements to prioritize these goals. The team also explores the human element — the impact of energy policy on residents, ratepayers and workers. The opportunityAs an intern, you will support communications work and projects for the Communities and Decarbonization team. We'll be leaning on you to assist with social media and digital outreach initiatives, and work with staff across the organization to maintain communications best practices and standardized processes.

  • Assist with the planning and execution of webinars and engagement sessions.
  • Support the maintenance of public engagement databases and email lists.
  • Support strategic communications planning, including research into new media and participation in stakeholder and issues monitoring and event planning.

You're highly motivated and passionate about using your communications, digital and social media skills to contribute meaningfully to transitioning Canada to clean energy — you're driven to make an impact.
