Job Overview

Reporting to the Senior Manager SES Programs, this position is responsible for providing strategic leadership, technical expertise, and project oversight to strengthen nuclear security governance, regulatory compliance, and operational effectiveness across OPG’s nuclear facilities. The role leads the development and execution of security programs, training initiatives, technology enhancements, and corrective-action projects that protect people, assets, and nuclear operations while meeting licensing, regulatory, and corporate requirements.

Working closely with site teams, senior security leadership, external partners, and internal stakeholders, the position identifies security risks and compliance gaps, recommends and implements corrective actions, and ensures security systems, processes, and controls remain effective, reliable, and audit-ready. The role also supports executive and Board due-diligence responsibilities through clear reporting, sound risk analysis, and forward-looking recommendations aligned with OPG’s strategic objectives and evolving nuclear-security standards.

Key Accountabilities

- Ensure nuclear station security programs, processes, and projects meet applicable regulatory, licensing, procedural, and due-diligence requirements.
- Interpret evolving nuclear security regulations and licensing requirements; identify compliance gaps, assess impacts, recommend corrective actions, and ensure timely resolution.
- Lead the design, development, implementation, and continuous improvement of nuclear security programs, governance, policies, standards, training, and work processes.
- Manage security projects from concept through commissioning and closeout, ensuring quality, technical accuracy, schedule, budget, drawings, specifications, approvals, and system integration requirements are met.
- Lead and guide project teams addressing security programs, training, systems,



and operational issues; ensure personnel qualifications and recertification requirements are maintained.
- Conduct threat, risk, performance, and governance assessments; identify opportunities to strengthen controls, reduce loss exposure, improve service effectiveness, and enhance audit and regulatory readiness.
- Serve as the subject-matter expert and primary point of contact for assigned projects, security condition reports, and corrective-action plans; investigate sensitive or complex issues and provide independent, evidence-based recommendations.
- Partner with site teams, trades, planners, engineers, contractors, regulators, and senior leadership to coordinate security initiatives; monitor system performance, report results, support business planning and budgeting, and evaluate emerging security technologies.

Qualifications

- 7+ years of progressive experience in security programs, regulatory compliance, governance, risk management, or operational assurance within a highly regulated or critical-infrastructure setting, such as nuclear, electricity, oil and gas, transportation, government, or defence.
- 3+ years of project or program leadership experience, managing scope, schedule, budget, quality, risks, approvals, commissioning/closeout, and multiple internal and external stakeholders—including operations, engineering, trades, contractors, and suppliers.
- Demonstrated ability to interpret regulatory and licensing requirements, identify compliance gaps, assess impacts, and lead corrective actions, condition reports, and corrective-action plans through to timely closure.
- Experience developing, implementing, and improving security or operational programs, governance frameworks, policies, standards, procedures, methodologies, and controls to support regulatory compliance and business objectives.
- Proven capability in conducting security, threat, risk, performance, and governance assessments; translating findings into practical recommendations that improve controls, system reliability, audit readiness, and operational effectiveness.
- Strong communication and leadership skills, including preparing executive-ready reports and recommendations, advising senior management, leading multidisciplinary teams, coordinating training and qualification programs, and engaging effectively with internal and external partners.

The total compensation package for regular full time management roles includes pay-for-performance programs for annual and medium time periods. Maintaining a high-performance culture and excellence is a core expectation of every member of our leadership team and is rewarded through the established compensation framework.
