As an Energy Scheduler you will have the opportunity to engage with power markets throughout North America, managing the commercial dispatch for a diverse fleet of facilities and related positions, through collaboration with many other groups at Emera Energy.

• Effective problem-solving skills with the motivation to work through problems independently.
• The ability to internalize and respond to rapidly changing information.
• A readiness and excitement to learn new skills and embrace challenges in the pursuit of opportunities.
• A combination of formal education and work experience in business, engineering or a related field.
• The Marketing Desk is staffed 24/7/365 so shift work is required.
