The NSW Government Digital Channels team is responsible for central NSW Government digital channels including the NSW Government website and NSW Government Facebook.

On these channels, we provide an inclusive, consistent, high-quality experience for NSW Government customers.

What is in our sights right now is a transformational program consolidating government information from many websites into a customer-centric nsw.gov.au. In order to do this, we want to gather a talented team that will establish great ways of working, collaborate on delivery, challenge old business models and test and learn new technologies.
