As part of the ACT Public Service (ACTPS), Digital Canberra offers some of the best hybrid and flexible working arrangements in Australia.

Canberra is Australia’s capital – a welcoming, unique city with a quality of life that many cities aspire to.

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. Our work spans many technology disciplines, and our workforce is culturally and linguistically diverse.

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.
