About the role

Utah County Government is seeking a strategic Human Resources Director (appointed) to provide executive HR leadership, payroll, and benefits administration for about 1,200 employees. You will act as a trusted advisor to elected officials and department heads, ensuring compliance with employment laws and safety regulations. This role reports to the County Commission, driving talent management, workforce planning, and organizational change to support high service levels and accountability.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
