Service Victoria is the one place to go for government services. It's our job to make things easy.

We are growing and are looking for amazing frontline support to deliver a great experience for our customers.

The Service Victoria culture is dynamic and fast-paced, we're not what you'd expect from a government department. Our customer experience officers (CxOs) operate out of the GovHub in brand new offices in the heart of Ballarat, located close to transport and many food outlets.
