To be successful in this role you will need the following:

Subject matter expertise in web accessibility, especially WCAG 2.

Ability to self-manage and work closely with members of a tight-knit, fast-moving team.
Proficiency communicating technical issues that have real-life impacts in verbal and written styles suited to senior decision makers in government.
Strong analytical and advisory skills and the ability to think strategically.

It would be great if you also had:

Basic web design and development skills
An understanding of standards development processes, maturity assessment and risk assessment methodologies
Relevant domain knowledge, e.g., digital or ICT operations, information management, or consulting and the provision of professional services.

If you want a job where the work you do matters to New Zealand, we would like to hear from you.
