Deputy District Attorney
Benton County, Oregon 4.2
Corvallis, OR job
The Benton County District Attorney's Office is seeking a Deputy District Attorney to join our team. If you wake up every morning with a desire to do the right thing for the right reason, the Benton County District Attorney's Office is where you should be. As a Deputy District Attorney (DDA), you will protect victims' rights, promote community safety, hold offenders accountable, and work to protect the constitutional rights of all in the system. You will have the chance to make a real difference in the lives of others. Your case load will be based upon your demonstrated experience and skill set, but as you progress, you can expect to be assigned an increasingly complex and challenging case load.
The goal is to fill this position as a Deputy District Attorney 3.
However, applicants who can meet the minimum qualifications for the Deputy District Attorney 1 or 2 are also encouraged to apply.
The first review of applications will be on February 13, 2026.
Applications that are submitted after this date may or may not be considered for interviews. The posting may close without notice after the first review date when a sufficient number of qualified candidates are received.
Part of a Team:
Our DDA team is composed of up to 12 prosecutors, with a range of experience from 2 to 24 years. Maintaining a high level of skill and professionalism is essential. However, equally important to us is having a team who supports one another, meshes well, and believes in the hard work we do. We emphasize an open-door policy, where each DDA as well as our elected will be available to assist and support you at all times; whether it is learning the practices of a new jurisdiction or providing feedback as you prepare for motions or trials in major cases, we will help you succeed.
How We will Support You:
You will be supported by some of the best, brightest and most seasoned prosecutors in the State of Oregon. You will have true and trusted mentors who will help you to be your best; you will have the opportunity to mentor and support DDAs with less or different experience than yourself. Every year we send most of our DDAs to the ODAA summer conference as a team. We will also provide opportunities for additional training in line with your areas of interest.
Our Prosecution Approach:
We use a vertical prosecution model, where each DDA handles their cases from review and charging through trial and sentencing. You will be encouraged to take on more challenging cases as you advance in skill and experience. We provide our DDAs with a broad range of case assignments, but we will encourage you to develop an expertise in your particular areas of interest. As a deputy district attorney, we will expect you to exercise a fair amount of autonomy regarding your cases, including making charging decisions, or in resolving or trying cases by "seeking justice through the truth" (our motto).
Annual Salary Ranges:
* Deputy District Attorney 3: $115,335 - $161,469
* Deputy District Attorney 2: $107,278 - $146,288
* Deputy District Attorney 1: $96,194 - $131,175
You will be eligible to receive a salary raise at 6 months, then again at 12 months, as long as your performance is in good standing!
* If, for example, your starting pay is $126,783.49, your first raise will be to $132,635.78 and your second to $138,402.58.

Retirement
Oregon Public Employees' Retirement System - Jackson County participates in the State of Oregon Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS). PERS has Tier One, Tier Two, and the Oregon Public Service Retirement Plan (OPSRP) pension programs, as well as the Individual Account Program (IAP). Tier One covers members hired before January 1, 1996; Tier Two covers members hired between January 1, 1996 and August 28, 2003; and OPSRP covers members hired on or after August 29, 2003.
IAP contains all member contributions (6% of covered salary, currently County-paid) made on or after January 1, 2004. The legislature created the IAP in 2003 to provide an individual account-based retirement benefit for new workers hired on or after August 29, 2003, and for Tier One/Tier Two members active on or after January 1, 2004. The IAP benefit is in addition to the member's other retirement program benefit (i.e., Tier One, Tier Two, or OPSRP). Employees are automatically vested in their IAP account when their account is established.
IAP Redirect - Per Senate Bill 1049 (2019) contributions remain at the rate of 6% however, a portion of that 6% is redirected to the Employee Pension Stability Account (EPSA). 2.5% is redirected for the Tier 1 and Tier 2 members and 0.75% is redirected for OPSRP members. The rest of the county-paid contribution is directed to the employee's IAP. Employee's may choose to make voluntary contributions for the amount of the redirect through the Oregon PERS Online Member Services (OMS) at ********************
Salary Limit - Beginning January 1, 2020, SB 1049 changed the definition of "salary" for PERS purposes and created new limitations on annual and monthly "subject salaries." Your salary is used to determined member Individual Account Program (IAP) contributions, employer contributions to fund the pension program, and the final average salary used in calculating retirement benefits under formula methods. The 2022 limit $210,582 per year. The limit is prorated when members work fewer than 12 months in a calendar year.
OPSRP is designed to provide approximately 45 percent of an employee's final average salary at retirement (for a general service member with a 30-year career or a police and firefighter member with a 25-year career).
OPSRP General Service: Unless employees are in a police or firefighter position, they are considered a general service member. In addition to other retirement programs or any social security benefit, when employees retire, if vested, PERS will calculate monthly benefit using the following formula:
1.5 percent x years of retirement credit x final average salary. Normal retirement age for general service members is age 65, or age 58 with 30 years of retirement credit.
General Service Benefit Calculation Example (employees can estimate benefits using any number of years and any final average salary)
Final average salary: $45,000
Retirement credit: 30 years as an OPSRP member
30 (years) x 1.5 percent = 45 percent
45 percent x $3,750 (final average monthly salary) = $1,687.50
Single Life Option monthly benefit = $1,687.50 ($20,250 annual benefit)
OPSRP Police and Firefighter (P&F): To be classified as a P&F member at retirement, employees must have been employed continuously as a P&F member for at least five years immediately preceding their retirement. In addition to other retirement programs or any social security benefit, when employees retire, if vested, PERS will calculate monthly benefit using the following formula:
1.8 percent x years of retirement credit x final average salary. Normal retirement age for P&F members is age 60, or age 53 with 25 years of retirement credit.
P&F Benefit Calculation Example (employees can estimate their benefit using any number of years and any final average salary)
Final average salary: $45,000
Retirement credit: 25 years as an OPSRP member
25 (years) x 1.8 percent = 45 percent
45 percent of $3,750 (final average monthly salary) = $1,687.50
Single Life Option monthly benefit = $1,687.50 ($20,250 annual benefit)
Voluntary Deferred Compensation Program - Jackson County offers regular employees the option to enroll in IRS Section 457 Deferred Compensation Retirement Plans. The employee defers compensation through voluntary payroll deductions into this supplemental retirement plan. The 457 plan is a separate retirement plan from PERS.
Other Benefits
Voluntary Direct Deposit - An employee may choose to have their payroll check automatically deposited into their bank account. Employees can choose up to four accounts to receive direct deposit funds. Most banks allow participation of this program.
Voluntary Flexible Spending Account (FSA), Section 125 Plan - The FSA is a tax-free regular employee-funded account. Regular employees may choose to participate in pre-tax health insurance premiums, out-of-pocket unreimbursed eligible health care expenses, dependent care expenses, and qualified transportation expenses, in order to have "before-tax" dollars deducted from their paychecks.
Employee Assistance Program (EAP) - The County has a fully-funded Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to offer. The EAP is a FREE and CONFIDENTIAL benefit that can assist you and your eligible family members with personal problems, large or small. The EAP provides confidential services to help people privately resolve problems that may interfere with work, family, and life. The EAP is offered to regular employees, their dependents, and any household members. Services include up to four face-to-face counseling sessions per year, 24/7/365 access to crisis counselors, and convenient access to on-line consultations with licensed counselors.
