- Develop and advance advocacy strategies that support operations, major projects, export growth, market access, and regulatory certainty
- Serve as a trusted advisor to senior leaders on government, policy and regulatory matters, bringing a commercial and enterprise perspective to complex issues and strategic decisions
- Represent AltaGas in government, regulatory, industry and stakeholder forums, consultations, and negotiations
- Influence and align leaders across Commercial, Business Development, Operations, Legal, Communications, Corporate Development, and Indigenous Relations to advance shared enterprise priorities
- Translate complex policy, regulatory and business issues into clear, compelling insights for executive and Board audiences

- An ownership mindset and the credibility and confidence to lead significant relationships and priorities directly.
- Sound judgement and the ability to make thoughtful trade-offs while navigating complexity, ambiguity, and competing interests
- The ability to influence and build alignment across functions, leadership levels, and geographies
