Senior Environmental Coordinator

Number of positions: 1 Job Location: Edmonds 16

Employment type: Permanent Region: Lower Mainland

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

Annual salary: $ 109,700.00 - 138,700.00

What you'll do

As a member of the dynamic Project Environmental Risk Management 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 includes 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 cost of their work package. The EWPM is expected to have expertise, and
a working knowledge of all, disciplines within the scope of the work package, and should consult with subject matter experts
within the Environment department as required, while acting as the single environmental point of contact for the project or
portfolio of projects.

Close collaboration with our Indigenous Relations (IR) counterparts is essential to developing accurate project schedules
and appropriately scaling and delivering the respective scopes of work. To achieve this, the EWPM works closely with IR on
those tasks and deliverables (e.g. environmental plans, studies, monitoring) in which Indigenous communities may have an
interest in being involved.

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. The ability
to communicate clearly and confidently and show leadership is essential, including adapting personal communication style
to meet the needs of the audience, and anticipating reactions or questions in advance. All team members are expected to
act from the perspective of a “One Hydro” approach by offering to lend a hand to help others, and coaching others on
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.

  • Acquiring all environmental regulatory permits, including liaising/negotiating with regulators as required, and advising
project teams on environmental requirements and potential conditions of regulatory approvals.

  • Ensuring that project work is consistent with Environment department policies and processes.

  • 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.

What you bring

  • A degree, preferably at the graduate level, relevant to planning, environmental assessment and permitting, natural
resources, engineering, geoscience, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.

  • A designation as a Qualified Registered Professional in British Columbia under the Professional Governance Act of BC
and operating within their own area of practice as it relates to this role (e.g. R.P.Bio, P.Ag, P. Eng).

  • Minimum of eight years of experience in progressively more responsible positions in the environmental field.

  • Project management courses and certification will be considered a strong asset.

  • Ability to manage relationships with all various levels of enterprise-wide leadership (employees to executives) and external
clients and stakeholders.

  • Well developed communication, facilitation, negotiation and interpersonal skills.

  • Well developed planning, organizational, analytical and problem-solving skills.

  • Experience working with environmental regulators, Indigenous communities, and/or the public, and with multi-disciplinary
teams.

  • Experience predicting, defining, and managing the environmental risks of large-scale capital projects and programs.

  • Availability for travel, sometimes to remote locations and outside normal working hours.

  • Must be able to be authorized for both BC Hydro Power System Safety Protection (PSSP) and Work Protection Practices
(WPP).

What we offer

  • A comprehensive benefits package
  • A minimum of 15 paid vacation days
  • A lifetime pension
  • Flexible work model, depending on your role type
  • Training and development courses

  • As part of the selection process, applicants may be required to complete a written test/ assessment and/or a presentation

  • Please note there will be some occasional travel required in this role around the province.

  • A condition of employment in this role is that you maintain your Class 5 Driver's License in good standing.
