We appreciate that you are considering opportunities to serve your community and the State. The job opportunities below provide vital support to Maryland residents, including critical services such as public safety, health care, and education.
The State of Maryland also provides its employees with strong benefits, including health coverage, retirement benefits, ample leave time, reduced child care costs, among many others. Many positions are also eligible for telework.
To find the job openings you are most interested in, narrow your search using the filter options below.

In response to the FY26 Budget, Governor Moore announced a hiring freeze for the Executive Branch of the State of Maryland. As such, the State is temporarily pausing recruitment efforts for most positions.
However, certain classifications -- e.g. in public safety -- are exempted from the hiring freeze and so are still actively being recruited for. Applications for these roles are encouraged and you may see the complete list of those active recruitments below. Thank you for your continued interest in opportunities with the State of Maryland.
