Bring complex work to life—earlier, safer, and smarter. The Senior Advisor Program Planning and Optimization is a senior execution enablement role for professionals who thrive at the intersection of planning and field delivery. You will play a meaningful role in accelerating a multi‑billion‑dollar brownfield pipeline and facilities portfolio by unlocking execution readiness, aligning diverse collaborators, and turning plans into projects that reach in‑service dates sooner.

This role exists to drive real outcomes—not reports—by identifying risks and opportunities early, optimizing sequencing and site layouts, and ensuring engineering, procurement, construction, operations, and investment decisions come together to enable safe, accelerated execution across multiple states and provinces.

What You Will Do

• Identify and actively drive program‑level risks and execution opportunities that improve schedule certainty, capital efficiency, and business value.
• Accelerate in‑year capital execution by pulling work forward, advancing ISDs, and enabling early execution through collaborator alignment.
• Lead site layout and spatial planning, using GIS and plot plans to manage congestion, sequencing, and resource constraints.
• Integrate engineering, construction, operations, supply chain, project controls, and sponsors to bridge planning with field execution.
• Engage investment owners to evaluate scope, schedule, and capital trade‑offs and ensure commitments translate into in-service results.
• Own execution readiness across a large, multi‑year portfolio, ensuring work is mature, aligned, and ready to advance when execution windows open.
  
  

Who You Are

• Bachelor’s Degree or technical diploma or related construction or operational training and/or experience.

• Deeply knowledgeable in brownfield execution within energized electrical systems or pressurized, operating pipelines.
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity, proactively identifying solutions, and getting results in fast‑paced environments.
• Adept at evaluating schedule and capital trade‑offs to enable early work, optimize sequencing, and increase execution certainty.
  
  

Working Conditions

• 85% Office environment.
• Up to 15% for travel to the field for site visits. Overnight travel may be required as well as the need to wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Valid passport is required.
