Generous paid time off and flexible work

We encourage top performance over working longer hours. Vacations are meant to be taken—and enjoyed! We recognize you have a life outside of work and ensure personal days off are available for you to take care of you and your family. We also know that flexibility matters – not just when it comes to personal days, but in the everyday rhythms of life and work. That’s why we offer flexible, hybrid work options for certain non-operational roles – offering a mixture of time spent working from home to tackle individual tasks and time spent in the office connecting with others.

Inclusive environment

We value diversity among people in thinking style, attitudes, perceptions, behaviour, background and all other attributes that make each person unique. We believe that inclusiveness means a workplace in which differences between people and perspectives are valued and leveraged, and we want everyone to feel supported, comfortable and completely part of the team. You get to be your authentic self with us, and a part of a team that respects and values you. We ask the very same of you. With respect as table stakes, you have an important role to play in fostering our inclusive work environment by valuing your colleagues and treating everyone with openness and respect.

“Risk & Reward” - These two words encapsulate 10 years at Capital Power, both broadly speaking as well personally. As a business, we have taken calculated and well-managed risks, opening the door for growth and shareholder value. At the individual level these words ring true as well; my career path has included both sides of the same coin, having been a part of Credit & Commodity Risk and Valuation Services.

"Opportunities" - I chose this as there are so many opportunities this company offers that it’s almost overwhelming (in a good way). Volunteering, the after hours program, events where they bring in different speakers (PD Days), job growth, hosting tours of different sites/facilities, team building events, SWEP students, and the list goes on. Capital Power really is full of amazing opportunities for everyone who is apart of it and I cannot wait to see what the next 10 years bring.

"Growth" - Over the past decade, I have seen and continue to see how Capital Power GROWS its business and people. It’s not just about making the MWH. It’s also about making it a safe work environment where people can develop professionally, excel, and have fun along the way.
