About

Jared Ottenhof advises organizations on strategy where industry, government and communities meet. He aligns parties with competing priorities, builds the relationships that complex files depend on, and moves work to decisions. Before founding Kaironos Advisory Inc., Jared was Director of Lands and Resource Management at the Qikiqtani Inuit Association, representing Inuit landowners on some of the largest resource projects in the Arctic, including Mary River, Hope Bay, Back River, and the Ekati and Diavik diamond mines. He worked directly with mining companies, federal and territorial governments and regulators, led technical review and regulatory intervention, negotiated impact and benefit agreements, and built durable relationships with Indigenous communities across Nunavut.

Jared delivers rigorous, clear work that clients can act on. He prepares thoroughly, tests assumptions, and gives direct advice grounded in a working knowledge of how industry, government and communities make decisions. His work has included board-level briefings, regulatory submissions, negotiation strategy and organizational plans, each built to hold up to close scrutiny from every party at the table. Kaironos Advisory Inc. brings that standard to clients across sectors, on projects where the quality of the advice shapes the outcome.

Jared holds a Bachelor of Applied Science in Civil Engineering from the University of Ottawa and is completing his Executive MBA at the Smith School of Business, Queen’s University.
