The Alberta Public Service works to build a stronger province for current and future generations. We make a difference in the lives of Albertans through rewarding and diverse career opportunities.

We support Albertans in being proud stewards of air, land, water, and biodiversity by leading the work required for desired environmental outcomes and sustainable development of natural resources.

We focus on wildlife conservation, managing protected areas, creating environmental policies, conducting research and engaging the public through educational initiatives. Our commitment is to sustainably, ensuring Alberta’s landscapes and resources are persevered and responsibly managed for future generations.

Please review Ministry of Environment and Protected Areas to learn more and what it has to offer.

Alberta’s Regulatory Assurance Framework sets and achieves the environmental, economic and social outcomes Albertans expect from sound land use planning, policy assurance, cumulative effects management and sustainable resource development for air, land, water and biodiversity. This is partly accomplished through the provision of informed authorizations to industry, stakeholders and the general Albertan public for access to, and the use of, Alberta’s natural resources.

Role Responsibilities

Are you an experienced approvals leader with a desire to guide a dynamic, multi-disciplinary team delivering timely, defensible and credible regulatory decisions? This is the position for you.

Reporting to the Regulatory Assurance Manager, the Approvals Manager carries delegated decision-making authority for activities under the Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act (EPEA) and the Water Act (WA), and the accompanying regulations and policy, within their scope or district.

The Approvals Manager issues approvals and authorizations and ensures proposed activities that could cause an adverse impact on the environment, other resource users, or First Nations are reviewed with appropriate terms and conditions. The position assesses risks and implications associated with decisions, including high-risk or high-consequence matters affecting the environment or clients.

Lead and direct delivery of the Approvals Program at a district level to support the health of Alberta’s environment and natural resources.
Act as Statutory Decision Maker / Designated Director for approval decisions under applicable legislation and represent the department in appeal proceedings or judicial reviews when required.
Ensure timely, defensible and credible regulatory decisions that align with legislation, policy, regional land-use plans and the Regulatory Assurance Framework.
Provide direct supervision and leadership to a diverse group of senior professional and technical staff, including workload management, performance support, succession planning, and development of staff capability.
Build and maintain productive relationships with applicants, industry, municipalities, First Nations, government partners, regulators, and the public to support open, transparent and integrated decision-making.
Identify policy conflicts, knowledge gaps, emerging issues, trends and operational risks, and provide advice and recommendations to regional and divisional leadership.
Collaborate with Compliance, Resource Stewardship, Lands Division, Alberta Energy Regulator, Alberta Utilities Commission, Natural Resources Conservation Board, Department of Fisheries and Oceans, and other partners on integrated regulatory matters.
Support continuous authorization management after authorizations are issued, including interpretation of approval clauses, amendment requests, and referral of non-compliant activities to Compliance when appropriate.
Contribute to continuous improvement of approval processes, committees, working groups and emergency response support across the region and ministry.

The Job Description is provided for further details on this position.
