Georgia-Pacific Process Engineering Internship - Brewton, AL - Summer

Your Job

We are currently recruiting a Process Engineer Intern for the Brewton AL container board mill for the summer of 2027. This Process Engineer Intern position will work in a high energy and dynamic organization. The Process Engineer Intern will be a contribution motivated individual that will have broad responsibility for safety, environmental compliance, data and process analysis.

The successful candidate will utilize problem solving skills while focusing on safely improving productivity and reducing cost through process/equipment optimization projects while utilizing operator engagement to expand their technical knowledge.

The Brewton mill is in south central Alabama about an hour from Mobile, AL, Pensacola, FL, and the beautiful beaches of the Gulf Coast. The team is made up of 450 employees who produce white top linerboard and solid bleached sulfate (SBS) paperboard. The SBS material is used to make GP's Dixie plates. White top linerboard is used in production of corrugated containers and displays.

This position is an opportunity to be part of a rapidly expanding organization with tremendous growth potential. The most recent $160M capital investment was completed in late 2024 in the Pulp Department that allows Brewton to have some of the most up‑date Causticizing equipment in the country. The Brewton mill was also the first fully integrated pulp and paper mill in the US to receive an Energy Star designation from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
