TDS to increase its Montana workforce

TDS Telecommunications LLC (TDS®) is pleased to announce it’s now hiring as it continues to increase its presence in the Treasure State. The telecommunications company currently has 45 associates working in Montana and hopes to add about two dozen more.   

In September 2021, TDS kicked off construction on its 500-mile fiber-to-the home network across the city of Billings, Montana, which is the first city in Montana to receive a fiber optic network. When the project is complete, TDS will deliver up to 8Gig internet speeds for businesses and residents.

“At TDS, we invest not only in the communities we serve, but also in the people we hire,” said Senior Vice President of Corporate Affairs Drew Petersen. “We’ve been impressed with the quality of individuals who now work for TDS in Montana and we look forward to hiring even more Montanans.”

In Helena, Butte, Missoula, and Great Falls, TDS has commenced final build preparations with its construction partners with plans to break ground on its fiber network in 2023. When construction is completed, TDS will deliver symmetrical internet speeds up to 8Gig, TDS’ all-digital TV service called TDS TV®+, and a variety of phone options for residential and business customers.

TDS currently has about 25 job openings in Montana. Positions are now posted on the company’s website at tdstelecom.com/careers.

TDS is a good corporate citizen and in its first 18 months in Montana, TDS has infused tens of thousands of dollars in local sponsorships and donations to charitable organizations.
