- This role is hybrid with a mix of remote and in-person. Work primarily takes place at North Campus, Edmonton.

- Strategic (PEC-S) and BARC. This role has two primary accountabilities:



the first being the continued development and implementation of the ERM function. The second being the development of a contemporary Quality Assurance and Improvement Program (QAIP) under the new Global Internal Audit Standards, mapping combined assurance, and leading data analytics/insights efforts as required.
