Employment type: Temporary Region: Various

Hours of work: Full-time (37.5 hrs/wk) Versatile Work Role: Hybrid

Annual salary: $ 109,700.00 - 138,700.00

What you'll do

As a member of the dynamic North Coast Transmission Project team in this project delivery-oriented role you will provide
environmental support, as environmental work package manager (EWPM), on complex BC Hydro capital projects.

The scope of the role includes supporting the Regulatory team in navigating federal and provincial environmental regulatory
processes and preparing or managing the preparation of information related to potential environmental and socio-economic
effects of projects.
EWPMs are responsible for the scope, schedule, budget, and costs associated with their work package. The EWPM is
expected to have expertise, and a working knowledge of all, disciplines within the scope of the work package, consulting
with subject matter experts as needed, while serving as the single environmental point of contact for their assigned scope of
work.

Close collaboration with our Indigenous Relations (IR) counterparts is essential for developing accurate project schedules
and appropriately scaling and delivering the respective scopes of work. To achieve this, the EWPM works closely with IR on
tasks and deliverables (e.g. environmental plans, studies, and monitoring programs) with participating Indigenous
communities.

In addition, this role will support strengthening our relationships with existing clients by working collaboratively on project
teams, developing and/or delivering environmental training, and proposing new ways to better meet our clients’ needs.

Applicants should be knowledgeable of relevant standards, policies, practices and procedures, and have the ability to




exercise independent judgment in analysis and problem solving for highly complex and medium scope projects. Strong
communication and leadership skills are essential, including the ability to adapt communication styles to suit different
audiences, and anticipate questions or concerns in advance. All team members are expected to embody a “One Hydro”
approach by supporting colleagues, contributing where needed, and coaching others in the application of business
knowledge.

Duties may include, but are not limited to:

- Selecting, contracting and managing consultants, as/when required, to assist with the environmental scope of work, as

appropriate during all project phases.

- Strategically advising project teams on internal recommendation documents, including budget requests, contract requests,

alternatives evaluations, business cases, and overall environmental strategy.

- Writing or leading development of project environmental requirements, including appropriately- scaled assessments of

potential project effects on fish and fish habitat, water quality and flow, wildlife, hazardous waste management,
contaminated sites, socioeconomic interests, and archaeological and heritage resources.

- Advising project teams on ways to assess and address Indigenous, public, and stakeholder concerns around project

environmental risks.

- Liaising/negotiating with regulators as required and advising project teams on environmental requirements and potential

conditions of regulatory approvals.

- Providing consistent advice and assistance to project teams on compliance with environmental aspects of BC Hydro’s

systems and procedures such as Project Portfolio Management (PPM), incident reporting, and compliance audits.

- Pro-actively managing own time to prioritize and oversee project environmental risks across an array of capital projects at

various stages of planning or implementation.

- Other Environment, Senior Environmental Coordinator, and/or EWPM-related duties as required or as assigned by your

manager.

an equivalent combination of education and experience.

- The successful candidate must have the appropriate professional designation in British Columbia (e.g., RP.Bio, P.Ag, P.
