Challenging, fast-paced and high-energy — that’s the work environment KBE Building Corp. offers its staff, according to Jonelle Lawhorn, KBE’s marketing and proposal manager. “It’s a culture where innovation, creativity and communication is encouraged, and where staff at all levels work closely with senior leadership.”
“Employees value KBE’s commitment to philanthropy through the firm’s 50 Ways To Make A Difference charity program. Annual employee awards and holiday party, summer picnics and Friday breakfasts are just a few of the extras offered. Outstanding benefits and a well-respected leadership team round out the work experience for KBE staff,” Lawhorn said.
