• Experience developing and executing regional policy, regulatory, or stakeholder-engagement strategies that influence business outcomes.
• Strong knowledge of energy markets, grid planning and operating rules, utility regulation, resource planning, large-load interconnection, or related energy infrastructure topics.
• Proven ability to assess complex external developments and translate them into clear strategic recommendations for senior business leaders.
• Strong executive presence, communication skills, and ability to represent the organization credibly in high-stakes external settings.
• Ability to build consensus and influence across internal and external organizations without direct authority.
• Ability to travel periodically for regional external engagement, industry conferences, grid operator and trade association working groups, and internal meetings. Travel will be primarily focused on in-region stakeholder engagement.
