Job Summary: Ever wonder what it takes to deliver some of the world's most ambitious engineering and construction projects? From the engineers designing complex solutions, to the procurement teams sourcing critical equipment, and the construction professionals bringing it all together, there are extraordinary people and stories behind everything Bechtel builds. Are you ready to uncover these stories? Excited about turning some of the most complex ideas into communications that people want to read, watch, and share? If so, this may be the job for you.
Bechtel is looking for an EPC Functions Communications Specialist to help tell the stories of the people, expertise, and capabilities that power our business.
