- A relevant qualification in IT, digital design, service design, or related fields (or equivalent experience).
- Experience in user research or related fields.
- Proficiency in tools like Sketch, Figma, or similar prototyping software.
- Skills in interaction design (e.g., wireframing, user flows, customer journey mapping).
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with experience in stakeholder engagement.
- Ability to take feedback and adapt solutions to meet evolving needs.
- Confidence in presenting ideas, facilitating workshops, and leading discussions.
- A sharp eye for detail and a customer-centered approach to problem-solving.

- Knowledge of standards development, maturity assessment, or risk assessment.
- Familiarity with agile environments.

- The chance to do work that truly matters for New Zealand.
- A diverse, inclusive workplace where everyone has equal opportunities to succeed.
- Competitive salary range ($117K-$157K), based on your experience.
- 4 weeks annual leave.
- 3 additional paid holidays between Christmas and New Year.
- 15 days sick leave annually from your first day.
- A $300 annual well-being allowance.
- Vision or prescription lens allowance, or a hearing exam allowance.
- A flexible work policy to help you balance life and work.
- Opportunities to grow your knowledge of Te Tiriti o Waitangi, Tikanga Māori, te reo, and te ao Māori.
- Support for your professional growth in an environment committed to learning and innovation.

**Make a Difference with Us**

At the Department of Internal Affairs, your work will directly impact the lives of New Zealanders. If you're excited about using your talents to help modernize and improve government services, we’d love to hear from you.
