Human Resources

Welcome

Welcome to Centre County Government's Office of Human Resources. We work to provide support for Centre County's nearly 600 employees located at the Centre County Correctional Facility, Courthouse, Transportation, MH / ID / DA office, Willowbank Building, and local District Justice offices.

Centre County is a Great Place to Live & Work

Located in the central region of Pennsylvania, and home to nearby Penn State University, Centre County Government offers many exciting opportunities to learn and grow in a career while making a difference in the lives and citizens in our community. Each of our departments meets a unique need in the community which we serve and provides a setting where you can experience professional growth and personal satisfaction.

Because we believe workplace diversity is a major contributor to a successful organization, Centre County embraces diversity in our community as well as our workforce and seeks to enhance it on all levels. As an equal opportunity employer, all hiring, promotions, demotions, training, and other opportunities are based on qualifications and without regard to race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, age, medical condition, mental, or physical disability.

We are bound together by a philosophy of a strong work ethic, honesty, compassion, diversity, and teamwork in a supportive, progressive work culture.
