• Strong commercial awareness and experience supporting contract acquisition
• Thorough understanding of Canadian nuclear regulations and standards
• A confident, credible leader comfortable operating with autonomy and accountability

Why This Role

• Opportunity to build a nuclear capability your way , rather than inherit legacy systems
• Real decision-making authority and executive-level visibility
