- Subject matter expertise in web accessibility, especially WCAG 2.
- Skill identifying the causes of accessibility problems and presenting practical solutions in a detailed manner relevant to the audience.

- 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.

- 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.
