Canberra, Australia ACT Government Full time

**Who we are**

The Design and Strategy Branch provides strategic guidance of technology and data investment, and is responsible for development and maintenance of whole of government technology roadmap architecture and design practice, including principles, standards and methods.

**What you will do**

As a member in a multi-disciplinary team, you will undertake research with customers using co-design techniques including observational studies, customer interviews, prototyping, and other forms of qualitative and quantitative research to uncover insights, learn about user behaviour and verify design concepts. This will include developing documentation identifying business problems, research findings and create artifacts to map user pain points, journey maps, service blueprints and personas to support timely project delivery. The work will also involve communicating concepts through storytelling and prototypes ranging from low to high fidelity (including for example wireframes, click-throughs, interactive prototypes), as well as identifying, articulating, and testing the viability and feasibility of assumptions with customers and stakeholders.

This work will require close collaboration with other areas within the organisation to promote the value of a great design in achieving positive business and community outcomes. To support these outcomes across Government, you will also identify relevant industry trends into the work of the sections that enable innovative government service delivery that can be applied to provide better ACT Government outcomes.

**What you require**

You will need to possess the following professional / technical skills and demonstrated experience:

- Strong knowledge of Human Centred Design (HCD) practices and Design Thinking
- Demonstrated design capabilities developing journey maps, personas, empathy maps, service blueprints and other HCD artifacts
- Experience in conducting user research
- Well-developed written and oral communication skills
- Ability to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team in an agile development environment.
