Why join us?

The IESO is committed to ensuring Ontario’s electricity system meets the province’s needs today and into the future. We are charged with purpose, delivering reliable, affordable, and sustainable electricity for homes, businesses, and communities across the province. We are energized to grow, embracing opportunities to shape the future of a dynamic and evolving energy sector while advancing our careers. We are powered by teamwork, supported by diverse and passionate colleagues who foster respect, celebrate successes, and thrive on shared achievements. At the IESO, it’s not just what we do - it’s who we are!

Who we are

Our central role includes managing the provincial power grid in real-time, overseeing and evolving Ontario’s electricity market, engaging with government, municipalities and Indigenous communities, and planning for Ontario’s future electricity needs. Our employees play a key role in driving grid innovation, protecting the system from threats, advancing the province’s energy conservation programs, and forecasting and procuring the electricity resources we’ll need in the decades to come. This is a unionized position that falls within the Power Systems Development business unit.

What makes this role exciting

The energy sector is rapidly evolving, offering exciting new opportunities for those who want to make a difference.

The Advisor, Resource Acquisition will help develop qualitative and quantitative analysis to help shape the design, development and execution of Resource Adequacy mechanisms and broader sector evolution. This includes conducting both forward looking and ongoing analysis on the results, impacts and trends that emerge from and inform various acquisition mechanisms. The Advisor will advise on the technical, commercial, and policy considerations impacting electricity resource acquisition activities for the organization, with a focus on competitive procurements, including initiatives targeting energy and capacity supply services.

The technical and commercial elements involved in resource acquisition activities include: leading project scheduling; developing procurement process framework and structure; undertaking associated community and stakeholder engagements; launching and maintaining procurement projects and associated processes; project evaluation and selection; and contract negotiations. Procurements may include competitive bidding, auctions, standard offers and sole-source negotiations, among others. These responsibilities are conducted in the context of the commercial mandate of the IESO.

The Advisor will be expected to be familiar with infrastructure procurement practices and be knowledgeable about electricity generation, distribution, and transmission; electricity market design and operation, infrastructure project valuation and energy economics; electricity sector regulations and standards, as well as broader infrastructure procurement best practices.

What you’ll do

In this role, you’ll make a meaningful impact by contributing to the IESO team and supporting the electricity needs of the province through:

Analysis –evaluate and solve technical and commercial issues associated with projects, including both procurement and policy initiatives
Due Diligence – perform facility performance analysis (e.g., thermodynamic modelling), cost estimation (research, quotes, consultant reports), return analysis (financial modelling), and risk analysis (mitigate/contractually allocate risk)
Procurement design – help oversee the design of procurement mechanisms, strategies and processes appropriate for the type of procurement (standard offer, auction, competitive RFP, negotiation) and the type of resource being sought
Contract development – help lead the development of procurement documents, including program rules, request for proposals, and contracts. Help manage internal and external legal teams in drafting documents
Procurement/program administration – implement procurement processes, ensuring that all obligations are fulfilled in accordance with procurement/contract requirements, culminating in successful execution of contracts, and, as needed, manage assigned contractual obligations
Contract negotiations – undertake contract negotiations with counterparties, ensuring IESO and rate payer interests are upheld and IESO’s reputation and professionalism are maintained
Support infrastructure – develop, manage, and enhance procurement initiative infrastructure, including proposal evaluation tools, prescribed forms and program specific website that will be used by the public to interact with IESO and as the main method of receiving program content.
Stakeholder relations – internally with various business units (e.g., Planning, Regulatory Affairs, Legal Affairs, Markets, System Operations, Indigenous Relations and the Market Renewal Program team); externally with Government and its agencies, such as the Ministry of Energy, Northern Development and Mines, and with external stakeholders
External Resources – as required, source, secure and manage the work of external consultants (e.g., legal, economic, / technical, auditing, etc.)
Team Efforts – participate in project teams comprised of IESO staff and external staff, as required
Remain flexible and available to assist with other projects within the Department or in other IESO Departments
Perform other duties as required

Role Requirements

Our team consists of experts from diverse backgrounds, each bringing their unique perspectives and skills.

To succeed in this role, you’ll need:

Highly collaborative, adaptable, and comfortable working in a dynamic, evolving energy landscape.
Self-motivated with a sense of ownership and commitment to delivering results
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills,
Strategic mindset with the ability to align procurement decisions with organizational objectives, market needs, and policy direction.
High level of judgment, professionalism, and accountability when working with commercially sensitive information.
Experience developing and/or working with contracts related to complex energy or infrastructure facilities is an asset
Familiarity with Ontario electricity sector regulations, policies, and standards, or the ability to quickly develop deep regulatory expertise.
Experience working within or alongside a regulated electricity market environment is strongly preferred.

The knowledge required for the job is considered to be normally acquired through the successful completion of a 4-year university education or the equivalent in a science, engineering, economics, math or business discipline.
