Sailors in the Navy’s Construction Battalion are makers. They’re driven to work with their hands and they know the value of doing a job right the first time. They’re tougher than any task and they’re not afraid to get a little dirty.

ENGINEERING AIDE

Be responsible for performing the pre-construction prep work from blueprint planning to land surveying.

EQUIPMENT OPERATOR

From crane operation to roadbuilding equipment, you can help pave the way for successful Navy missions and earn your operators’ licenses while you do it.

STEELWORKER

Manage construction operations, craft steel structures, and perform welding, cutting and other specialized metalwork operations.

UTILITIESMAN

From maintaining heating, air and plumbing systems on Navy bases to rebuilding utilities infrastructure for hospitals in cities struck by natural disasters, it’s up to you to keep vital systems running.

  • Competitive salary
  • Potential to earn a bonus upon enlistment
  • Free health insurance
  • Free housing
  • A retirement plan

  • U.S. citizen or equivalent
  • High school graduate or equivalent

WORK ENVIRONMENT

As a part of the Construction Battalion, you may work at Navy bases or ports of call around the globe, and you may be deployed to help develop or rebuild areas affected by natural disasters or support combat operations. Seabees primarily serve at shore-based commands—you will likely not spend time at sea.

PART-TIME OPPORTUNITIES

Serving part-time as a Navy Reserve Sailor, your duties will be carried out during your scheduled drilling and training periods. During monthly drilling, Builders in the Navy Reserve typically work at a location close to their homes.
