Why Work For Douglas?

With breathtaking views, Douglas sits at 5,000 feet at the foot of the beautiful Laramie Mountain range, and beside the North Platte River and is only a short distance from the Medicine Bow National Forest, Ayers Natural Bridge and Glendo Reservoir.  This beautiful location offers many outdoor recreational opportunities such as hunting, fishing, boating, hiking, camping, and more!  We believe our opportunities for growth are boundless!!!

Our Beautiful Community is Recognized as the  Jackalope Capital of the world, and is located in east central Wyoming in Converse County.   Douglas has a diverse economy and a high quality of life grounded in traditional family values.  With a population of 6,386 and a longstanding connection to Ayers Natural Bridge, our legacy is rooted in the Oregon Trail pioneers, railroads and, of course, the wild western frontier.  That pioneering spirit essential to survive in the old west, still exists.

Douglas is a progressive organization consisting of a five member City Council and an appointed City Manager.  The City Manager oversees day-to-day operations and provides overall supervision for all city departments including Public Works and Utilities, Police, Community Development, and Administrative Services.
