    Requisition ID: 19448

    Location: Adelaide, hybrid

    Status: Regular and Temporary, up to 24 months

    Business Unit: Legal Resources & Corporate Governance

    Why join us?

    You've got great skills. And you want to use them in an organization where you know what you do every day matters. We get that.

    We also know that ensuring Ontarians have access to affordable and reliable power doesn't happen by accident. So we give you the tools, flexibility and support you need to achieve your goals, and development opportunities to help you grow. You'll thrive in a collaborative, team-based environment that values your unique skills and experiences - and recognizes that when you do better, we become even better too.

    Who we are

    The Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) works at the centre of the province's power system, ensuring Ontarians have access to reliable and cost-effective electricity when and where they need it. We operate the province's electricity grid 24/7, design, run and oversee the wholesale electricity markets, and plan and prepare to meet Ontario's electricity needs - now and into the future.

    The opportunity (1 permanent and 1 temporary position)

    The IESO is seeking lawyers to join its legal team. The successful applicants will have a minimum of four years post-call experience, preferably working on complex matters in leading law firms or fast paced in-house environments. The position will depend on successful applicant experience.

    Accountabilities

    As a member of the Legal Department, Counsel will work collaboratively, advising on multi-disciplinary legal projects, providing strategic legal advice on a range of complex legal, regulatory, policy and business issues, ensuring that advice is linked to the organization's strategic objectives, and acting as an integral part of internal and external project teams. Counsel will provide high-quality solution-oriented legal advice and guidance on a range of matters supporting IESO's strategy and mandate, including:

    • Management of electricity generation contracts
    • Acquisition of new electricity system resources (including from electricity storage facilities) and management of energy contracts
    • Implementation of electricity conservation and demand management programs, and innovation and grid modernization initiatives, including through IESO's grid innovation and hydrogen innovation funds
    • Electricity market operations including interpretation, administration and development of the IESO's Market Rules and related matters
    • Interpretation and compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements
    • Transmission system planning
    • Disputes that may arise under or in relation to Market Rules or energy procurement contracts, and
    • General operations of the IESO, including matters relating to procurements of goods and services (including IT-related acquisitions), cybersecurity, non-disclosure agreements, freedom of information access requests, privacy law, records management, and related legal research

    Who you are

    • A member in good standing with the Law Society of Ontario
    • We are looking for a minimum of 4 years post call experience in corporate commercial or transactional law gained either in a leading law firm or in-house law department setting. Applicants with more than 8 years post call experience may be considered for a Senior Counsel role.
    • Experience in any of the following specific areas is an asset:
      • Electricity or energy law
      • Infrastructure or construction law
      • Banking and finance law
      • Procurement law
