The Raleigh-Durham job market has been buzzing over the past week, and listeners exploring new opportunities will find fresh openings across government, health care, hospitality, logistics, and entry-level management.

Durham County Government’s own careers site shows a wave of public-sector roles posted in just the last few days. According to Durham County Careers, new listings include a Clinical Social Worker position posted December 16, along with multiple health-focused roles such as Senior Public Health Nurse and Community Health Worker 1 posted December 15. Law and public safety are also hiring: the county lists fresh openings for Telecommunicator, BLET Deputy Sheriff Cadet, Detention Officer Cadet and Certified Detention Officer, plus a Deputy Sheriff Lateral role, all added between December 14 and December 15. For listeners with a technical or trades background, Durham County has recently posted a Senior HVAC Technician, Plant Maintenance Technician, Operations and Maintenance Specialist II, Utility Supervisor roles, and a Medical Laboratory Supervisor, signaling strong demand for skilled hands in infrastructure and facilities.

Private employers are adding momentum. On Indeed’s Raleigh-Durham search, thousands of roles have been refreshed in the past week. Indeed shows local hospitality hiring with Flavor Hills Durham Restaurant and Bar seeking Restaurant Servers in downtown Durham, highlighting paid training, flexible schedules, and advancement opportunities. Public Storage in Durham is recruiting a Customer Service Self Storage Manager with benefits including health insurance, 401(k) match, and mileage reimbursement, reflecting steady demand in customer-facing operations. Logistics and warehouse work are active too: McGrath Electric in northwest Raleigh lists a Warehouse Associate role at 18 to 22 dollars an hour with a flexible schedule, while LCI in Durham posts a Handler I, Material position featuring retirement and insurance benefits, ideal for listeners with forklift or RF picking experience.

The region is also drawing those looking for early-career leadership and hybrid paths. Indeed shows Creative Collaborations in Durham urgently hiring an Entry Level Assistant Manager with a salary band from 47,500 to 58,000 dollars a year and explicit opportunities for advancement, targeting recent grads and career changers. For those seeking flexible or remote-friendly work tied to the Triangle, Outlier AI lists a Remote Part-Time Writer – AI Trainer role based in North Carolina, offering 15 dollars an hour and the ability to work from home while building analytical and communication skills.

Staffing firms are amplifying this activity. Randstad USA’s Durham page highlights a mix of manufacturing, clinical support, and office roles updated within the past several days, underscoring strong demand for both contract and permanent talent in the metro. For listeners with professional accounting or management experience, recruiting agencies like Robert Half are similarly active across the Triangle, though many of their posts date slightly beyond the seven-day window and mainly reinforce the broader pattern: Raleigh-Durham employers are hiring steadily across finance, administration, tech, and back-office operations.

Taken together, the last week in Raleigh-Durham job postings paints a picture of a balanced market: government and health systems shoring up critical services, hospitality and self-storage expanding frontline teams, warehouses and production floors adding hourly staff, and entry-level managers and remote specialists finding fresh openings. For listeners ready to move, this is a moment to act quickly, tailor applications to these concrete needs, and tap into one of the Southeast’s most active employment corridors.
