WSDOT has an exciting opportunity for a highly motivated communications professional who will perform communications work for WSDOT maintenance and operations.

Communications work for this employee includes working one shift each day in the Transportation Management Center (TMC), corresponding with media and disseminating closure and incident information via the web.

This person plays a key role in emergency response in the field and in the TMC. This person also provides support for maintenance and operations work, as well as construction projects throughout Northwest Region. This person will provide that support through research, writing and editing internal and external documents, creating and update webpages and providing constituents with timely correspondence.

With little direction, this person will identify, research and respond to issues that arise and become progressively more independent as the knowledge base increases.

This work will also include working with diverse constituencies. The ability and willingness to work occasional nights and weekend during high-impact construction season is desired. Our ideal candidate will excel in writing, social media, media communications, videography and non-linear editing.
