Perks. You’ll enjoy a competitive salary, four weeks of vacation and time off between Christmas and New Year’s, RRSP matching, flex work and an enhanced benefits plan. To be your best personally and professionally, we’ll have your back in supporting work-life balance and professional development.

The Opportunity

The Pembina Institute is a non-partisan think tank that advocates for strong, effective policies to support Canada’s clean energy transition. Through research, consulting and convening, we employ highly collaborative approaches to reduce the environmental impacts of energy production and use. We’re passionate about sustainability and dedicated to enabling positive social change and equity. We’re energetic, dynamic, collaborative, nimble and sharp as tacks.

This is a pivotal moment and it’s all hands on deck here. We’re searching for a Senior Analyst to play a role in advancing research to support the reduction of emissions from oil and gas emissions.

The Position

Canada is currently developing some of the world’s most ambitious climate policies at a time when major changes are happening in global energy systems. Our oil and gas sector is at a pivotal moment. Decisions made this decade will impact the trajectory of the sector for decades to come. Our oil and gas program works to advance leading-edge policies that are needed for the oil and gas industry to do its fair share in helping Canada meet its climate targets and prepare the industry to successfully navigate the energy transition.

Reporting to the Director of Oil and Gas, in this role you will support our team in advocating for strong policies to reduce emissions from oil and gas production. We are looking for someone with experience in the oil and gas sector and strong data analysis skills; a team player who can create content that communicates complex issues in a compelling way to decision-makers to advance our policy goals.

The Candidate Profile

As an ideal candidate, you’re smart, creative and passionate about advancing the clean energy transition through pragmatic policy and driven to create change. You’re positive and pragmatic, with a record of building good relationships and solving problems with stakeholders from every corner — from government to industry to Indigenous communities and environmental non-profits. You're thoughtful, creative, dynamic and easy to work with. In short, you’re a lot like us.

• Represent the Pembina Institute’s views at meetings, regulatory hearings, presentations, and in the media.
• Manage and cultivate constructive relationships with government, industry leaders, other ENGOS, and Indigenous community members, and collaborate with those groups to advance ambitious climate policies.

Essential Skills And Qualifications

• A master’s degree in science, engineering, sustainability, economics, public policy or related field.
• 5+ years of experience working on energy and environmental issues in industry, academia, government, or the non-profit sector.
• Experience conducting data analysis using Microsoft Excel.
• Knowledge and demonstrated interest in climate change, policy, and the oil and gas sector.
• Strong project management skills and ability to prioritize and execute multiple projects with internal and external stakeholders.
• Strong oral and written communication skills, with the ability to convey complex matters in plain language and in a variety of formats such as formal reports, blogs and social media posts.
• Ability to develop and maintain collaborative relationships with a variety of groups.

Other Valuable Qualifications

• Direct experience in developing or implementing provincial and/or federal environmental policy and regulation.
• Experience at multi-stakeholder tables or in finding solutions within a group that reflects a range of interests and perspectives.
