About Bountiful City
What is Bountiful City?
Bountiful City is the municipal government of Bountiful, Utah — a Davis County city of about 46,000 on the slopes of the Wasatch Range, just north of Salt Lake City. Settled on September 27, 1847 by Perrigrine Sessions, it is Utah's second settlement after Salt Lake City itself, incorporated in 1892 and named both for the Book of Mormon city and for its agricultural bounty. The Bountiful Utah Temple (1995) overlooks the city from the foothills. Unusually for its size, Bountiful runs its own power utility — generating and delivering electricity to its residents — alongside standard municipal services.
Where will I work?
Bountiful City Hall at 795 South Main Street. The 4/10 is structural: the city's own site-wide footer reads "Hours: Monday through Thursday 7 am to 6 pm". Four ten-hour days, every Friday off.
What is the Bountiful City team like?
A mid-sized civic team (LinkedIn band 201-500) across power, public works, parks, police and administration. Recent civilian postings include a Purchasing Agent. We list the city's civilian professional roles; field and part-time positions run separate schedules and are excluded from our feed.
Work-Life Balance
Every Friday off, by the building's own hours — and the city's bulletins spell out a genuinely strong Utah package, from URS funding to near-total premium coverage.
