Wellington is a vibrant, progressive, and ambitious city, known globally as one of the best capitals in which to work, live and play - and you can contribute to keeping it that way!
As pioneers, our Smart Council team continues to lead the evolution of our digital capabilities to help us deliver an inclusive, sustainable, and creative Poneke. We are fully cloud-based, primarily in AWS.
We are now transforming how we design and deliver services to the people of Poneke through our Tutuki programme, which builds a framework for service delivery that's user-friendly, streamlined and makes sense. Tutuki services are measurable and consistent across all Smart Council channels, making it easier for kaimahi to deliver a first-class experience to our communities.
Vital to this important mahi is our Architecture and Digital Solutions team who provide innovative approaches to key city priorities and challenges. We use digital technology and design digital solutions to help implement these important pieces of work throughout Council.
