    Description

    LOCATION

    We have work all across the country in large cities and small towns. A majority of our work is currently in the Puget Sound Region, however, we also have project locations in Washington, Oregon, California, Texas, Louisiana, Alabama and Alaska. One of the many things that makes Kiewit's culture unique is that we go where the work is, which exposes your career to abundant opportunities. We relocate our teams based on the work that is available, combined with the development plans, skill sets and career goals of each team member.
