This role is responsible for building and owning supply forecasts; integrating data from multiple sources; generating insights that inform capital allocation, commercial decisions, and long-range planning; and collaborating with the Commercial and Business Development teams to ensure that analyses and outputs support their building plans, priorities and actions.

- Create and maintain proprietary delineations and well type curves for the key WCSB resource plays
- Aggregate and reconcile data across multiple sources, including internal and third-party datasets, to develop a “single source of truth” for supply
- Develop multiple supply scenarios to assess the impact of upstream development plans, infrastructure buildout, and commodity pricing signals
- Gather market intelligence on planned upstream oil and gas drilling activities through reviewing company press releases and presentations
- Stay informed on technological advancements in resource extraction techniques and industry regulatory changes to help guide forecasting assumptions
- Maintain databases and tools that underpin ongoing forecasting and strategic work
- Partner with the Commercial and Business Development teams to align forecasts with real-world insights and to support growth opportunities
- Support executive decision-making on capital allocation and long-range planning by developing clear and compelling materials to communicate forecasts and insights
- Work on other related forecasting and analytical deliverables as they arise in the normal course of business
You have:
- 10+ years of experience in upstream, midstream, energy, or related analytical roles (e.g., strategy, planning, commercial, research, or consulting)
- Strong understanding of the WCSB and North American oil and gas industry
- Familiarity with key industry data sources (e.g., AER, BCER, Petrinex, CER, and third-party forecasters such as Wood Mackenzie)
- Advanced Excel skills with demonstrated experience building complex, bottom-up models (production, supply-demand balances, or financial models)
- Strong organizational skills with the ability to own and manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
- Strong quantitative and critical thinking skills with the ability to identify inconsistencies, investigate root causes, and develop solutions
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present complex topics clearly and concisely
- Proven ability to work cross-functionally and at building strong relationships
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Finance, Economics, or a related field
- P.Eng., CFA, MBA, or other relevant advanced designation is considered an asset
- Experience using geoSCOUT or EVA is considered an asset
