Occupation: Policy

Reference: VG/DJ4711JUN23

The Department of Government Services was established in 2023 to improve the experience for Victorian’s doing business and interacting with the government.

We are doing this by connecting and digitising our systems and platforms across state and local government, streamlining our corporate and procurement services and refocusing government policy and operations to make sure we are customer focused.

Department of Government Services brings together Digital Victoria, Service Victoria, Local Government Victoria, Consumer Affairs Victoria, the grant program centre and consolidates procurement policy, and whole of Victorian government telecommunications policy as well as the Working With Children Checks and Births, Deaths and Marriages. Oversight of Cenitex and the Public Record Office Victoria also transfers to DGS.

DGS also brings together VPS accommodation management, grant administration platforms and administration, and the procurement of whole of government goods and services. A new corporate shared service arrangement between DGS and central agencies (DPC and DTF) will deliver seamless and efficient services, while also driving VPS-wide corporate services reforms.
