County of Thurston careers

At the southern end of Puget Sound, Thurston County's government serves more than 300,500 residents across 727 square miles, the sixth most populated of Washington's 39 counties. More than 140,000 of them live in the urban north around Olympia, Lacey, and Tumwater, and the rest are spread through smaller communities like Yelm, Tenino, Rainier, and Bucoda and the rural country south of the cities. County administration works from Pacific Avenue in Olympia, the state capital, and the county counts itself among the fastest growing in the Pacific Northwest.
