Our GIS Records Group is responsible for maintaining a state-of-the-art GIS database that captures the location and condition of transmission, distribution, substation and land-base assets relevant to Eversource’s electric network. This internship offers an opportunity to gain work experience and become familiar with the working environment at Eversource and the use of GIS within utilities in general.
The GIS intern will be responsible for assisting with data maintenance in the GIS database and related projects. The scope of the projects will be based on the current needs of the records group.

This is a paid full-time, in-person position with the potential to transition into a permanent supervisory role.
