Jobs in Metro Atlanta
Jobs in Metro Atlanta span 29 counties, reaching from the city core out to Cartersville, Newnan, Griffin, Dahlonega, and Carrollton. MetroAtlanta.Jobs is a local job board built for this region and nothing else, so every listing here is a metro Atlanta job. No nationwide results, no roles three states away, just work you can actually get to.
Hiring runs across the whole region and across every kind of work. Healthcare and medical employers hire year round through the major hospital systems and their outlying clinics. Transportation, warehouse and logistics work follows the interstates and the airport. Construction, skilled trades and production roles track the region's steady growth, while technology, engineering and science and business, finance and administration cluster in the corporate corridors. You will also find education, training and non-profit, government and public safety, hospitality, food and tourism, sales, marketing and customer service, creative, design and media, and animal care and veterinary openings across the metro.
Pick a county below to see current openings near you. Each county links to live listings within commuting distance, so results include nearby employers just across the county line where that is how people actually work.
Barrow County Jobs
Barrow County jobs center on Winder, the county seat, with additional hiring in Auburn, Bethlehem, Statham, Braselton, and Carl. The county sits on the northeastern edge of metro Atlanta, where US-29 and GA-316 run straight into Gwinnett. Manufacturing, healthcare, retail, and education drive most local hiring, with Barrow County Schools and Piedmont Barrow Medical Center the two largest employers. Lower housing costs and steadily improving highway access have made Barrow a common home base for people who want metro wages without metro rent, and many residents commute west toward Lawrenceville and Duluth or east toward Athens. Openings below cover Winder and the surrounding communities within a normal commute, including nearby Gwinnett and Walton County employers.
Bartow County Jobs
Bartow County jobs center on Cartersville, the county seat, with additional hiring in Adairsville, Emerson, Euharlee, Kingston, White, and Taylorsville. Interstate 75 runs the length of the county and has made it one of the most active manufacturing economies in the metro, with more than 200 industries operating locally. Anheuser-Busch runs a Cartersville brewery, Qcells manufactures solar panels and has expanded into recycling and processing, and clean energy production continues to draw new employers to the area. Healthcare, retail, warehousing, and logistics round out a job market that hires steadily across skill levels, from entry-level production roles to skilled trades and management.
Butts County Jobs
Butts County jobs center on Jackson, the county seat, with additional hiring in Flovilla and Jenkinsburg. The county sits along I-75 between Atlanta and Macon, and that position on one of the busiest freight corridors in the Southeast has made manufacturing, logistics, and distribution the backbone of the local economy. Healthcare employment is growing as well, supported by local providers and by larger medical centers in neighboring Henry and Spalding counties. Butts is a small market on its own, but the drive north puts Henry and Clayton County employers within a reasonable commute, so many residents work in the south metro while living here.
Carroll County Jobs
Carroll County jobs center on Carrollton, the county seat, with additional hiring in Villa Rica, Temple, Bowdon, Whitesburg, Mount Zion, and Roopville. The University of West Georgia anchors the local economy from its Carrollton campus, employing thousands of faculty and staff and supporting a wide network of education, healthcare, and professional services jobs. Tanner Health System operates the county hospital along with outpatient and specialty clinics and is another of the largest employers in the area. Manufacturing remains a major part of the job market, particularly automotive components and building materials, and the I-20 corridor gives local logistics employers access to both Atlanta and Birmingham.
Cherokee County Jobs
View jobs near Woodstock Cherokee County hiring guide
Cherokee County jobs center on Canton, the county seat, along with Woodstock, Holly Springs, Ball Ground, and Waleska. The county has grown from a rural bedroom community into a real employment hub of its own, and Northside Hospital Cherokee is now among its largest employers and the main driver of healthcare hiring locally. The Woodstock and Holly Springs corridors along SR-92 and I-575 hold a growing concentration of commercial, retail, and light industrial employers, while the northern end of the county keeps the outdoor recreation character that has drawn families relocating from Fulton and Cobb.
Clayton County Jobs
View jobs near Forest Park Clayton County hiring guide
Clayton County jobs center on Jonesboro, the county seat, along with Forest Park, Morrow, Riverdale, Lake City, and Lovejoy. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport sits on the Clayton-Fulton line and anchors the entire local economy, driving tens of thousands of direct jobs in aviation, cargo, ground services, and air freight. The industrial corridors along I-285, I-75, and I-675 hold one of the densest concentrations of distribution and warehousing employers in the Southeast, making Clayton the logistics center of the metro. Healthcare, retail, and public sector work round out the market, anchored by Southern Regional Medical Center and the Clayton County school system.
Cobb County Jobs
View jobs near Marietta Cobb County hiring guide
Cobb County jobs center on Marietta, the county seat, along with Smyrna, Kennesaw, Acworth, Austell, Mableton, and Powder Springs. The Cumberland-Galleria district along I-75 is one of the most active office markets in the Southeast and hosts national headquarters including Home Depot and Truist. WellStar Health System is headquartered in Marietta and ranks among the largest healthcare employers in Georgia, with facilities throughout the county. The Battery Atlanta development next to Truist Park has driven steady commercial and hospitality hiring in the Cumberland corridor, while Smyrna and Kennesaw carry strong logistics, manufacturing, and professional services employment.
Coweta County Jobs
Coweta County jobs center on Newnan, the county seat, with additional hiring in Senoia, Sharpsburg, Grantville, Moreland, and Turin. Sitting about 40 miles southwest of Atlanta on I-85, the county has built a reputation as one of Georgia's most business-friendly communities and one of the fastest growing in the metro. Coweta County Schools is the largest employer, followed by Piedmont Newnan Hospital and Cargill's long-running beef processing facility. Newnan has also become a notable film and television production hub, drawing crews and production work into the area, and Amazon, Emory Healthcare, and Delta all maintain local operations.
Dawson County Jobs
Dawson County jobs center on Dawsonville, the county seat, in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains at the northern end of the metro. GA-400 runs straight through the county and connects it directly to Forsyth and North Fulton employers, which makes daily commuting practical for many residents. Retail is a major local employer thanks to the North Georgia Premium Outlets, one of the busiest outlet centers in the Southeast, and healthcare, construction, and hospitality round out the market. Dawson County Schools and the outreach facilities of the Northside Hospital network contribute steady public sector and healthcare hiring, while lake tourism and outdoor recreation drive seasonal service work.
DeKalb County Jobs
View jobs near Brookhaven DeKalb County hiring guide
DeKalb County jobs center on Decatur, the county seat, along with Brookhaven, Dunwoody, Chamblee, Tucker, Doraville, Stone Mountain, Lithonia, Clarkston, Avondale Estates, and Pine Lake. The county's employment base is anchored by an unusually dense cluster of healthcare and academic institutions, including Emory University and Emory Healthcare, the CDC headquarters, the VA Medical Center, and the Egleston campus of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. Decatur has developed into a busy urban employment hub for government, legal, nonprofit, and professional services work, while Dunwoody and Chamblee carry significant corporate and commercial office employment along GA-400 and I-285. Manufacturing and logistics employers fill out the eastern end of the county.
Douglas County Jobs
Douglas County jobs center on Douglasville, the county seat, with additional hiring in Lithia Springs, Winston, and Villa Rica. The I-20 corridor running west out of Atlanta has made the county a hub for warehousing, distribution, and light manufacturing, tying local employers directly into the metro freight network. Wellstar Douglas Hospital is among the largest healthcare employers in the county, and Douglas County Schools generates consistent education and support staff hiring. Continued residential growth along Chapel Hill Road and Veterans Memorial Highway keeps creating new retail, healthcare, and service jobs, which has made Douglas an increasingly self-sufficient job market rather than a pure commuter county.
Fayette County Jobs
Fayette County jobs center on Fayetteville, the county seat, along with Peachtree City, Tyrone, and Brooks. Trilith Studios has made the county a working center of Georgia's film industry, drawing production, crew, and support jobs to the area year round. Piedmont Fayette Hospital is another of the largest local employers, and the county has attracted a steady stream of corporate operations that want access to a well-educated workforce and an easy run to Hartsfield-Jackson via I-85. Peachtree City's planned layout and golf cart path network are a large part of the county's appeal, while Fayetteville and Tyrone carry most of the retail and healthcare hiring.
Forsyth County Jobs
View jobs near Cumming Forsyth County hiring guide
Forsyth County jobs center on Cumming, the county seat, along with South Forsyth and the growing communities around Lake Lanier. Forsyth has been one of the fastest growing counties in the country for two decades, and its job market has grown with it. Northside Hospital Forsyth is the single largest employer and drives healthcare hiring across the region, while retail, professional services, and a technology sector spilling over from Alpharetta fill out the market. GA-400 connects the county directly to the North Fulton corporate corridor, so working on one side of the county line and living on the other is common here. The Gathering at South Forsyth is expected to add significant hospitality, retail, and entertainment hiring as it comes online.
Fulton County Jobs
View jobs near Atlanta View jobs near Alpharetta Fulton County hiring guide
Fulton County jobs run from Atlanta's urban core north through Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alpharetta, and Milton, and south through East Point, College Park, Hapeville, Union City, Fairburn, South Fulton, and Palmetto. Fulton is the economic engine of Georgia, home to roughly 945,000 jobs and the highest average wages of any county in the state, with an unusual concentration of corporate headquarters, financial institutions, healthcare systems, and technology firms. The North Fulton corridor alone hosts more than 700 technology companies. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport anchors the southern end of the county and directly employs more than 63,000 people. Major employers include Delta Air Lines, Coca-Cola, Intercontinental Exchange, Emory Healthcare, Northside Hospital, NCR Voyix, and the CDC. The county runs roughly 70 miles north to south, so the two searches above split it into the city core and the North Fulton corridor.
Gwinnett County Jobs
View jobs near Lawrenceville Gwinnett County hiring guide
Gwinnett County jobs center on Lawrenceville, the county seat, along with Duluth, Norcross, Peachtree Corners, Suwanee, Buford, Snellville, Lilburn, Sugar Hill, Dacula, Grayson, Loganville, Auburn, Braselton, Berkeley Lake, and Mulberry. With more than a million residents and a labor force around 516,000, Gwinnett is one of the largest job markets in the Southeast. More than a quarter of residents were born outside the United States, and that depth of multilingual, internationally experienced talent has drawn global companies to the county. Major employers include Gwinnett County Public Schools with over 23,000 staff, Northside Hospital Gwinnett, WIKA Instrument, and SK Battery, alongside a dense cluster of technology, professional services, and logistics firms along the I-85 corridor through Duluth, Norcross, and Peachtree Corners. The Rowen development is expected to add research, life sciences, and technology hiring as it builds out.
Haralson County Jobs
Haralson County jobs center on Buchanan, the county seat, along with Bremen, Tallapoosa, and Waco. The county sits on the far western edge of the metro along the Alabama line, and manufacturing drives most of the local economy, with light industrial employers operating along US-27 and the CSX rail corridor. Healthcare and education hiring runs through the local school systems and through larger medical centers in neighboring Carroll and Polk counties. Housing here is among the most affordable in the metro, which makes Haralson a practical base for workers willing to commute east toward Carrollton and the I-20 corridor. The county is part of the Marietta Metropolitan Division and shares economic ties with Bartow, Cherokee, Cobb, and Paulding.
Heard County Jobs
Heard County jobs center on Franklin, the county seat, along with Ephesus and Centralhatchee. This is the smallest and most rural county in the metro, sitting on the Alabama line southwest of Atlanta, and its economy runs on manufacturing, agriculture, and public sector work. Heard County Schools and a small network of local healthcare providers are the primary institutional employers. Low cost of living and available land have drawn a handful of light industrial and warehousing operations to the US-27 corridor. Most residents who work outside the county commute toward Carroll and Coweta, which hold the nearest significant employment centers, so the search above covers a wider radius than most.
Henry County Jobs
View jobs near McDonough Henry County hiring guide
Henry County jobs center on McDonough, the county seat, along with Stockbridge, Hampton, and Locust Grove. The county's long stretch of I-75 frontage south of Atlanta has made it a major destination for logistics, distribution, and warehousing employers, with Amazon, a growing set of third-party logistics providers, and major retailers all operating significant facilities here. Piedmont Henry Hospital is among the largest healthcare employers in the county. Rapid population growth and expanding commercial development along the Highway 20 and 81 corridor through McDonough have turned Henry into an increasingly self-contained job market rather than a bedroom community, with retail, healthcare, and education hiring following the rooftops.
Jasper County Jobs
Jasper County jobs center on Monticello, the county seat, along with Shady Dale. This is one of the smaller and more rural markets in the metro, sitting along US-23 between Atlanta and Macon, and healthcare, education, agriculture, and small manufacturing make up most of the local employment. A large share of the county's workforce commutes to employment centers in neighboring Newton, Butts, and Putnam counties, or reaches larger markets by way of I-75. The search above covers a wider radius than most so it surfaces the openings a Jasper County resident would realistically consider.
Lumpkin County Jobs
Lumpkin County jobs center on Dahlonega, the county seat, in the northeastern reaches of the metro where the Appalachian foothills meet the North Georgia wine country. The University of North Georgia's Dahlonega campus is the largest employer in the county and the center of a small but active college town economy spanning education, hospitality, retail, and healthcare. Tourism built on the gold rush history, mountain trails, and the wine trail generates steady service and hospitality hiring through most of the year. US-19 and nearby GA-400 make Forsyth County and the broader metro job market reachable for residents willing to commute south.
Meriwether County Jobs
Meriwether County jobs center on Greenville, the county seat, along with Manchester, Warm Springs, Woodbury, Luthersville, Lone Oak, and Gay. The county sits in the southwestern corner of the metro, and healthcare, manufacturing, and public sector work anchor the local economy. The Roosevelt Warm Springs Institute for Rehabilitation is both a major employer and a landmark of the county's identity, tied to the history of Franklin D. Roosevelt's Little White House. Like other outer-ring counties, Meriwether has drawn workers who want rural living within reach of metro employment centers by way of I-85, and it shares workforce and economic development resources with Carroll, Coweta, and Heard through the Three Rivers Regional Commission.
Morgan County Jobs
Morgan County jobs center on Madison, the county seat, along with Rutledge, Buckhead, and Bostwick. The county sits along I-20 on the eastern edge of the metro between Atlanta and Augusta, and Madison's well-preserved antebellum architecture has made it a significant heritage tourism destination as well as a growing residential community for people who want a quieter base within commuting distance of Atlanta. Healthcare, education, retail, and hospitality make up most of the local employment, supported by an agricultural sector and a rising number of remote workers who have relocated here. The county is also home to a cluster of artisan, food production, and specialty manufacturing employers that reflect its character.
Newton County Jobs
Newton County jobs center on Covington, the county seat, along with Oxford, Porterdale, Mansfield, and Newborn. Covington's historic downtown has made it one of the most filmed locations in Georgia, and productions from television series to feature films bring steady crew, production, and hospitality work into the county. Beyond film, the I-20 corridor holds distribution, warehousing, and manufacturing operations that have grown alongside rapid population increase. Piedmont Newton Hospital and Newton County Schools are among the largest traditional employers, while Covington and nearby Social Circle continue to attract commercial and industrial employers relocating out of the inner metro.
Paulding County Jobs
View jobs near Dallas Paulding County hiring guide
Paulding County jobs center on Dallas, the county seat, along with Hiram and Braswell. Northwest of Atlanta along US-278 and connected to Cobb by SR-120, Paulding has gone from sparsely populated farmland to one of the fastest growing counties in the metro over the past two decades. Retail, healthcare, construction, and light manufacturing drive the local economy, with Wellstar Paulding Hospital among the largest employers. Continued residential growth along the Dallas-Acworth Highway corridor keeps generating demand for healthcare, education, retail, and service workers, and many residents commute into Cobb and Cherokee by way of SR-120 and I-575.
Pickens County Jobs
Pickens County jobs center on Jasper, the county seat, along with Talking Rock and Nelson. Jasper here is the city in Pickens County, not Jasper County, which sits well to the south. The county runs along I-575 and GA-515 in the North Georgia mountains, and manufacturing, healthcare, education, and construction make up most of the local job market, with Pickens County Schools among the largest employers. The marble quarrying industry that gave the area its history still operates locally. The I-575 corridor makes Cherokee County employers reachable for daily commuting, and many residents work south in Canton and Woodstock while living here.
Pike County Jobs
Pike County jobs center on Zebulon, the county seat, along with Molena, Concord, Meansville, and Williamson. This is a small, largely rural market in the southern metro along US-19 between Atlanta and Columbus, and manufacturing, healthcare, retail, and agriculture make up most of the local employment. A large share of residents commute north into Spalding and Fayette counties for work with larger healthcare, logistics, and commercial employers. Low cost of living, small-town character, and steadily improving access along US-19 and I-85 have made Pike an increasingly practical home base for people working elsewhere in the metro.
Rockdale County Jobs
Rockdale County jobs center on Conyers, the county seat and by far the largest city in this compact county east of Atlanta. The industrial corridor along I-20 and Iris Drive has built Rockdale a strong manufacturing and distribution identity, with employers in automotive components, consumer goods, and food processing operating locally. Piedmont Rockdale Hospital is among the largest healthcare employers and Rockdale County Schools provides substantial education employment. Housing costs well below Fulton or Gwinnett combined with a straight run into Atlanta on I-20 make the county a practical base for metro workers across a wide range of industries. The Georgia International Horse Park, built for the 1996 Olympic equestrian events, anchors a sports and events tourism economy as well.
Spalding County Jobs
Spalding County jobs center on Griffin, the county seat, along with Sunny Side and Orchard Hill. About 45 miles south of Atlanta along US-19 and I-75, Griffin serves as the commercial and healthcare hub for several surrounding south metro counties. Wellstar Spalding Regional Medical Center is one of the largest employers and the center of a healthcare economy that serves Griffin, Barnesville, and the broader south metro. Manufacturing has long been a major part of the local economy, with textile, food processing, and light industrial employers operating throughout the county. Southern Crescent Technical College feeds workforce pipelines into manufacturing, healthcare, and technical trades, and the county's I-75 access positions it well as logistics and distribution expand southward.
Walton County Jobs
Walton County jobs center on Monroe, the county seat, along with Loganville, Social Circle, Walnut Grove, Between, Good Hope, and Jersey. Sitting on the eastern edge of the metro along US-78 and SR-10, the county has economic ties to both Atlanta and Athens. Monroe has drawn a growing number of manufacturing, distribution, and logistics employers taking advantage of its central location and lower operating costs than closer-in suburbs. Walton County Schools is among the largest local employers and Piedmont Walton Hospital anchors healthcare employment in Monroe. Steady population growth continues as workers priced out of Gwinnett and DeKalb look for more affordable options within reasonable commuting range.
