Or you may enjoy the hands-on satisfaction of working with the latest technology to keep our hospitals, schools, and government running. At Digital Canberra, you will make a difference!
As part of the ACT Public Service (ACTPS), Digital Canberra offers some of the best hybrid and flexible working arrangements in Australia. Flexible working in the ACTPS means we provide the opportunity to work remotely (from home) or from a choice of office locations around Canberra, although the exact arrangements will be discussed with your hiring manager, based on operational needs.
Canberra is Australia’s capital – a welcoming, unique city with a quality of life that many cities aspire to. It’s the perfect place to raise children, take advantage of world-class cultural institutions, and enjoy the great outdoors. Canberra is primed for technology evolution. As a young and growing city, the shape of our community and our digital government services will continue to change.
Just like our city, Digital Canberra is inclusive. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where people with diverse thoughts, lived experience, and perspectives can thrive and contribute their unique talents to the ACTPS and ACT community. We encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people with disability, people with culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, veterans, younger and older workers, and people with diverse genders, sexes and sexualities to apply. We welcome candidates who have the right to work in Australia, which may include temporary and permanent visa holders (subject to your visa conditions and security clearance restrictions).
