We help you focus on our goals by creating an environment where you can achieve your own.

Today, we’re bringing together diverse perspectives to plan for tomorrow and ensure a stronger energy future for all Ontarians. With our powerful purpose and united by our shared values, we’re creating an environment where your ideas count – and you can do meaningful and rewarding work from day one.

Here you grow again

The energy sector is changing every day – we give you the tools, learning and experiences to thrive in this environment. In addition to a tailored curriculum, access to diverse learning opportunities enables our people to grow and succeed by helping them expand their portfolio of skills and broaden their understanding of the IESO and the sector.


Make a difference

You make a big difference at work: we help you do the same in the community. Whether running our annual United Way campaign, fundraising through team sports or events, or holding team-based volunteer days at local charities, our people demonstrate that genuine caring is more than a core value at the IESO – it’s part of our DNA.

The total package

Flexibility

We know some tasks are easier to accomplish remotely and others are best suited to being in the office,  so we give you flexibility to achieve your goals and improve your work-life balance.

Personal support

Whether you’re dealing with a serious illness or a family crisis, we can connect you with confidential counselling and other resources to help you get back on your feet.

Financial security

Preparing to achieve your vision for the future is easier, thanks to the IESO’s defined-benefit pension plans, which provide a fixed pension based on earnings and length of service.

Best-in-class benefits

Our plan covers all or part of a wide range of health-related expenses, including prescriptions, and appointments with health-care providers, as well as comprehensive vision and dental care.

Peace of mind

When the unexpected happens, you and your family are protected. In addition to sick leave and long-term disability, when you join the IESO, you’ll receive generous life insurance coverage.

Appreciation

Our team-based culture means that we depend on each other to achieve results – and, when colleagues go above and beyond, we recognize them for their contributions and celebrate their wins.
