About the Company

Service Victoria delivers modern government services. It is our job to make things easy for the Victorian community to do things such as apply for Working with Children Checks and access a Digital Drivers Licence. The Service Victoria app has been downloaded more than 7 million times.

We employ a range of people who are problem-solvers and change-makers to design, build and support services that help Victorians every day.

The Service Victoria culture is dynamic and fast-paced – we’re not what you’d expect from a government department. We work flexibly and remotely, using our workspaces in Footscray for onsite collaboration. We have a mature digital services platform of contemporary cloud-based infrastructure, technical architecture and scalable and reusable common capabilities, with real-time integration into agency legacy systems.
