• Assess qualifications for rail movement operators through competency assessments, field evaluations, and individual development planning.

• Support regulatory inspections, audits, and compliance reviews.

• Provide rail operational support to AltaGas facilities throughout North America, including regular travel to operating sites as required.

• Monitor, document, and report findings, development needs, and corrective actions arising from site visits and operator assessments.
