Full job description

Applications are encouraged from members of groups that are historically disadvantaged and underrepresented. Accommodations are available during the hiring process, upon request.

The Senior Intergovernmental Consultant exists to enable The City of Calgary to anticipate, interpret, and influence decisions made by other orders of government that have significant implications for municipal priorities, operations, and strategic outcomes.

The role provides senior-level strategic advice, advocacy leadership, and intergovernmental intelligence to support Executive Leadership Team, senior Administration, the Mayor, and Council on complex, sensitive, and high-impact issues involving legislation, public policy, funding, and external government relations.

Create strategic recommendations and key messages for the appropriate members of Council and Administration.
Advise decision makers of which relationships could be leveraged to result in the best outcome for The City.
Provide leadership, guidance, mentorship and day to day supervision to the junior position directly reporting to the senior consultant (e.g. Public Relations Liaison).
Building, maintaining, and facilitating critical relationships with senior officials and politicians with the goal of emphasizing and furthering municipal priorities. This includes CAO- Deputy Minister, COO or ELT- Assistant Deputy Minister, Mayor or delegate - Minister.
Track and analyze legislation, programs, and funding introduced by other governments.
Collaborate with departments and business units to assess impacts of government activities on The City and determine advocacy needs.
Monitor and interpret government and political activities for their impact on The City operations / interests, including:
- Bills, legislation, and policies;
- Parliamentary and legislative sessions;
- Government programs;
- Political news and trends;
- Budget and funding announcements.
Conduct technical reviews of new legislations and regulations.

Degree in a related discipline, supplemented by additional formalized training/education in a related field, and at least 5 years of progressive related experience.
Responsible for mentoring and developing staff, supporting the acquisition of political, strategic, and organizational competencies essential for effective intergovernmental work.
A strong understanding of municipal and provincial government operations and structures is considered to be an asset.
This position requires a commitment to political neutrality while carrying out job responsibilities and representing The City.
Success in this position requires demonstrated political acumen, public policy knowledge and a proven ability to manage project teams, collaborate, communicate effectively and establish effective relationships with diverse partners and elected officials.
Ability to define, adapt and revise intergovernmental advocacy strategies to meet the changing needs of The City.
