Job Description

AltaGas - Advisor, EHS (REEF)

You'll join AltaGas at a pivotal moment supporting the Ridley Island Energy Export Facility (REEF) as it transitions from commissioning into full operations. This is a rare opportunity to be part of a major Canadian energy asset at the ground level, shaping how safety, environmental stewardship, and operational excellence come to life day-to-day. We're looking for someone who is hands-on, curious, and motivated to grow. While experience matters, we're equally focused on finding the right person - someone who brings strong judgment, a proactive mindset, and a genuine commitment to building safe and efficient operations. This role will evolve. Early on, you'll be immersed in commissioning, start-up, and contractor coordination. Over time, you'll grow into a core EHS partner supporting steady-state operations across marine export and rail offloading.


What You'll Do

  • Be a visible, trusted presence in the field, supporting safe work during commissioning and ongoing operations

  • Support the execution and evolution of AltaGas' EHS programs, procedures, and standards

  • Lead safety conversations - toolbox talks, orientations, and day-to-day engagement with the workforce

  • Partner with operations, maintenance, and contractors to ensure safe, compliant execution of work

  • Conduct field inspections, audits, and observations, and help drive corrective actions to completion

  • Support incident response and investigation, including root cause analysis and learnings

  • Contribute to emergency preparedness planning and participate in drills and exercises

  • Support environmental compliance and field execution of site environmental plans

  • Assist with regulatory reporting, documentation, and engagement as required

  • Help ensure strong site security practices and access controls

What You Bring

  • 1-3 years of EHS experience in an industrial, construction, or operational setting

  • A practical, solutions-oriented mindset and ability to operate independently in the field

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to influence and build trust with diverse stakeholders

  • A willingness to learn, adapt, and grow in a fast-paced, evolving environment

  • Exposure to energy, marine, rail, or regulated environments is an asset - but not required

  • Post-secondary education in Occupational Health & Safety or a related field (preferred)

Why Join

  • Work at one of Canada's most important energy export facilities, connecting Canadian energy to global markets

  • Play a key role from commissioning through to full operations, with real influence on how EHS is embedded

  • Gain exposure across marine, rail, and federally regulated operations with strong development potential over time

This position offers a base salary range of $84,000 to $105,800 annually, based on experience, education, and skills. AltaGas also provides a competitive relocation allowance and a comprehensive benefits package, including health coverage, retirement plans, and paid time off starting on day one.
