This includes analyzing the current TOM and its current adoption, identifying opportunities for improvement, developing and executing Scalable Ops initiatives, and managing Ops Metrics and KPIs.\nAs Scalable Operations Analyst reporting to the Head of Scalable Operations, you will be performing activities across Scalable Ops’ (SO) full mandate (1,2, & 3), independently owning a significant share of mid-level tasks across all of SO's workstreams - Ops Initiatives, TOM Design and Initiatives, M&A, Organic Growth, Lessons Learned, and KPI Management. You will make day-to-day operational decisions, keep processes running, and maintain dashboard, internal tools and templates, and data automations. You apply your advanced skills in Excel, basic coding skills (using mostly low-code tools), hands-on capability with AI tools and agents, and strong familiarity with operational systems to progressively reduce the team's manual effort and improve the quality and reliability of Scalable Operations' tools and data. Automation and applied AI are not a side activity in this role: they are the primary mechanism through which Scalable Operations absorbs a growing portfolio without growing headcount.\nJob Description:\nKey Responsibilities and Authorities\nIndependently own and execute a broad range of mid-level operational tasks across all Scalable Operations workstreams, exercising operational judgement and making day-to-day decisions without requiring constant escalation to Leads and Associates;\nManage recurring Scalable Operations processes end-to-end: initiative status review cycles, KPI data collection and reporting cycles, Lessons Learned submission processing, and TOM-adoption monitoring updates;\nCoordinate multi-department inputs on behalf of Scalable Operations, chasing stakeholders, consolidating information, and maintaining momentum on deliverables across concurrent workstreams;\nConduct structured data reviews and flag inconsistencies, gaps, or risks to the relevant Lead before they escalate;\nSupport the Leads and the Head of Scalable Operations in preparing COO-level outputs: consolidating data, structuring analyses, and drafting first versions of briefings and reports;\nMaintain the centralised initiative dashboard and all Scalable Operations tracking tools, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and up-to-date status at all times;\nBuild, maintain, and continuously improve Scalable Operations' dashboards and reporting tools (Power BI, Excel), serving as the team's primary technical owner for these assets;\nDevelop and maintain automations and AI agents to reduce manual effort across Scalable Operations processes (Excel/VBA, Python scripts, Power Automate, and more), proactively identifying new opportunities to simplify repetitive work;\nWork with IT&Digital and NAIT to build more complex agents and automations for Operations, advising on operational requirements while understanding the underlying technical requirements\nMay act as the team’s point of contact for key operational platforms (Maximo, Dynamics 365, Power BI, SharePoint), coordinating with IT on system integrations, data connections, and platform improvements;\nOwn Scalable Operations' data quality standards: enforce, and monitor consistency across all initiative tracking, KPI, and performance management tools.\nMaintain the Scalable Operations automation and AI backlog: a live register of candidate use cases with estimated manual effort removed, feasibility, data dependencies, owner, and status;\nValidate AI outputs before they are relied upon, using defined test cases and spot-check protocols, and design the human review points that remain in the process;\nAssist in quantification and reporting of the effort removed by automations and AI deployment, feeding realized benefits into Scalable Operations' cost-to-serve tracking.\nHealth & Safety, Quality and Environment (HSQE)\nThis document must be read in combination with the HSQE Management System Manual, available on Nadara Intranet, which outlines the mandatory HSQE responsibilities and authorities related to this role.\nTechnical Competences\nData, tooling and process automation\nAdvanced Excel (complex formulas, pivot tables, VBA macros) - required;\nBasic coding skills: SQL for data queries; Python or VBA for automations - required;\nProficiency in Power BI or equivalent data visualisation tool - required;\nWorking knowledge of operational systems: Maximo, Dynamics 365, SharePoint - preferred;\nAble to independently structure and conduct data analyses, and translate results into clear outputs for senior audiences;\nStrong process orientation: ability to document, standardise, and continuously improve repeatable processes;\nComfortable making pragmatic decisions with partial or ambiguous information;\nFast learner; able to independently navigate unfamiliar systems, tools, and topics.\nArtificial intelligence and agentic automation\nPrompt engineering: able to write and iterate structured prompts, including system instructions, worked examples, and constrained output formats (for example JSON) that downstream tools can consume - required;\nUnderstanding of agentic patterns: tool and function calling, connecting an agent to documents, databases, and business systems, chaining multi-step tasks, and judging when a deterministic script or fixed workflow is better than an agent - preferred;\nRetrieval-based approaches (RAG): preparing and structuring document sets, indexing, and testing retrieval quality for question-answering over Operations documentation - preferred.\nBehaviours and Soft Skills\nFull-spectrum generalist: intellectually curious and comfortable contributing across all Scalable Operations topics, from M&A inputs to TOM adoption tracking;\nProactive and autonomous: identifies gaps and acts on them without waiting to be asked;\nHighly organised and reliable: strong personal systems for tracking tasks, deadlines, and stakeholder commitments across many parallel workstreams;\nStrong attention to data accuracy and process consistency;\nCollaborative and service-oriented: committed to making the senior team faster and better through both task ownership and tooling.\nAutomation instinct: when faced with a repetitive task, the first question asked is whether a person should be doing it at all, and the second is what the simplest reliable way to remove it is;\nEvidence-driven about AI: willing to test, measure, and retire tools that do not deliver, and comfortable saying when AI is not the right solution.\nEducation and Qualifications\nMandatory: Bachelor's degree or equivalent in any field - degree subject is less important than demonstrated analytical ability and technical aptitude;\nPreferred: prior experience in an operational, analytical, or project coordination role in the energy or industrial sector;\nPreferred: demonstrated experience with data tools, process automation, or operational system administration.\nPreferred: a demonstrable portfolio of automations, agents, or internal tools built in a professional or personal capacity; practical evidence of what has been built and used will carry more weight than certification.\nTravel Requirements\nLimited travel may be required for coordination purposes or stakeholder workshops across Nadara's operational geographies.\nPay and benefits\nAt Nadara, we’re committed to creating an environment where our people feel valued, supported and empowered to grow.\nOur rewards package reflects that commitment, including flexible ways of working, continuous learning and development opportunities, and initiatives focused on physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.\nWe recognise effort and dedication, and we make sure it’s matched with fair pay and meaningful benefits - join us and be part of an international renewable energy company that invests in both your personal and professional growth.\nSalary range: 30K-40K + variable bonus and benefits\nThe compensation range indicated in the job posting represents an estimated average range for the position.
