Job Overview

President and CEO
Ocean Networks Canada - Victoria, British Columbia

Ocean Networks Canada (ONC), a University of Victoria initiative, has pioneered a world-class, internationally-renowned observatory supporting coastal and deep-water investigation. Through the VENUS coastal network and the NEPTUNE Canada ocean network, the ONC
Observatory is transforming ocean research and associated technology development with an innovative subsea infrastructure and Internet based access to data and instrumentation from anywhere in the world.
This unique observatory is advancing our knowledge about the oceans – including subsea earthquakes and tsunamis, ocean acidification and marine biodiversity, among others – and holds immense promise for the future. Through the federally funded Ocean Networks Canada Centre for Enterprise and Engagement (ONCCEE), the data, research results and technologies emerging from VENUS and NEPTUNE Canada are being disseminated to policy makers, industry and the general public.

Reporting to a Board of Directors, you will:

– Provide strategic vision and progressive leadership to this growing organization of 60 professionals supporting leading edge ocean research and related knowledge and technology transfer;

– Champion continuing excellence by enhancing network integration and communication, and supporting the researchers’ breakthrough work and technology development;

– Build relationships and partnerships with national and international scientific communities;

– Be the face of the organization, ensuring the Canadian public understand and support the scope and importance of ONC’s work;

– Maintain and develop relationships with federal and provincial governments;

– Identify and secure ongoing funding from the federal and provincial governments to ensure financial sustainability;

– Forge commercial agreements around the organization’s intellectual assets; and

– Be a visible and articulate advocate with a broad and growing array of stakeholders.

In addition to your skills in leading an organization to new levels of achievement, you will bring outstanding communication, team leadership and mentorship, research management, and innovation skills to ONC. Perhaps most important, you will be a galvanizing force, internally and externally, for the advancement of ocean research.

ONC is an equity employer and encourages applications from women, persons with disabilities, members of visible minorities, Aboriginal
Peoples, people of all sexual orientations and genders, and others who may contribute to the further diversification of the organization.

Job Overview

WWF, one of the world’s largest conservation organizations is seeking to recruit

Advisor, Renewable Power
Global Climate and Energy Initiative (GCEI)

WWF’s climate and energy vision is a response both to the science and to new economic and political realities, with focus on achieving climate resilient, low carbon development on the national level and with the corporate sector.

Reporting to the Head of Climate Business Engagement within the GCEI, this is one of the key roles within the global business engagement team. The successful candidate will drive the uptake of renewable power among large power consumers and lead WWF’s global activities in this area.

The Advisor Renewable Power is responsible for delivering on WWF’s ambitious strategies to increase responsible renewable power consumption among large corporate power consumers. The largest industrial power consumers represent a substantial percentage of total power consumption in key markets, and effecting a shift toward renewables with these companies has the potential to drive change through the entire electric power delivery chain. In close collaboration with climate and energy staff from WWF-Mexico and the Global Climate and Energy Initiative of WWF-International, the advisor will work one-on-one, and in joint forums with large corporate partners on the implementation of investment in or purchase of environmentally sustainable renewable energy options.

The successful candidate will have at least ten years of experience related to the purchase of renewable power in an international corporate context, availability for frequent international travel. She/he will understand both the technical and business factors involved in the investment in and purchase of renewable power. The advisor will also have an understanding of the broader environmental considerations related to renewable power options. She/he will have an extensive network of contacts both in the energy and the corporate sector. The successful candidate will be a self-starter who can work comfortably with corporations at the highest level, while at the same time have the ability to lead and support WWF colleagues around the global network on issues related to renewable power purchasing and investment.

This position will be hosted in WWF Mexico office, in Mexico City (D.F.).
