This person can synthesize technical information, adapt content for different audiences and formats, and balance multiple projects and deadlines while maintaining strong attention to detail. This is a great opportunity for someone early in their career who wants broad exposure to pursuit and capture, technical storytelling, content development, proposals and visual communication within a growing, multidisciplinary professional services firm.

Recent graduates are welcome and encouraged to apply!
