Summer Opportunities at the OEB
As the regulator for the Province of Ontario’s electricity and natural gas industries, the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) is committed to providing students with valuable summer opportunities. This means that you, as a student, will benefit from our commitment to learning for all staff. And it means that you will gain first-hand knowledge – both from your work and from your colleagues – about how the OEB is carrying out its regulatory duties. A summer job with the OEB will give you the opportunity to face real challenges and responsibilities, produce results and meet high standards.
Typical summer positions in the past have included work in areas such as:
- Human Resources
- Research (within Regulatory Policy Development)
- Applications (within Market Operations)
- Business Services

Facing Challenges and Responsibilities
No matter which area you join or what kind of work you do, you will have the rewarding experience and satisfaction of knowing that your contribution is helping the OEB meet its business plan and its legislated and regulatory responsibilities. With a growing challenge to ensure a financially viable electricity industry, protect the interest of consumers and meet Ontario’s energy infrastructure needs, the regulatory work for which the OEB is responsible has become increasingly important. Strategic objectives have been delegated down to staff to ensure that our regulatory processes are effective, fair and transparent. And you can be an integral part of all this.
Producing Results
At the OEB, you will be part of a work environment where you can showcase your talents and be recognized for your accomplishments. Just as the Ontario Energy Board must produce results in order to be accountable to consumers and meet the mandate of the provincial government, so must every member of its staff. A professional, supportive group will assist you in delivering results and help you experience the regulatory effort of the OEB.
Meeting High Standards
The OEB sets a high benchmark for success, but success can only be achieved through the dedication and commitment of all staff, including students. Our high-performance culture will enable you to work both independently and as part of a team to excel and meet high standards. You will be expected – and empowered – to set ambitious goals, and guidance from your manager and available resources will support you in achieving those goals.
