In this episode, Grant McHerron talks with two people from KBR's Australia Defence and Security Solutions group: Christine Gillon, Director of People and Culture, and Ben Kelly, Senior Director of Sustainment and Integration. We discuss KBR’s growth in Australia and their role providing Defence with sustainment and engineering solutions.
We begin our discussion by getting an overview of Christine and Ben’s career to date and KBR’s decades of experience in delivering science, technology, and engineering solutions to governments and companies around the world. Our conversation explores the key areas of focus for KBR in Australia particularly around sustainment and sovereign capability, and the roles and careers available at KBR and the range of benefits that they bring.
We wrap up by getting an insight into how you can progress your career with KBR.
