Jonathan Sampson

Look Inside

Jonathan is the National Vice President, Government Relations at Enterprise. He brings over a decade of experience from both federal and provincial government as well as private business. He manages files across a variety of sectors including higher education, agriculture, transportation, manufacturing and not-for-profit.

Jonathan joined Enterprise in 2019 from the Ministry of the Attorney General, where he put his public policy and relationship-building skills to work on a range of priority justice files—from legalizing cannabis to responding to gang violence. These put his strong academic credentials to good use, advising senior decision-makers and gaining insight into a wing of government that works like no other.

With a good grasp of what makes a strong narrative and a quick, strategic mind, he’s a great resource helping navigate the many intersections where the private sector and politics meet.
