Senior Environmental Coordinator

Number of positions: 1 Job Location: Edmonds 11


Employment type: Permanent Region: Lower Mainland

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


Annual salary: $ 107,000.00 - 135,300.00


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.

Appropriate professional designation (or eligibility for) in British Columbia (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).

A minimum of 15 paid vacation days
A lifetime pension
Flexible work model, depending on your role type
