This role involves working as a member of a team that designs and develops websites for the Department. The primary task involves liaising with the Multimedia Development Coordinator to create the website structure and styling designed by the Graphics Design team.

Part of the role involves adjusting the CMS interface to make it as user friendly as possible for the stakeholders to make changes to the content.Whilst working in this role, I worked on an inter-agency collaboration project. The task involved working from the office of a website development company for several weeks to assist with the development of the wa.gov.au website in collaboration with a team from the Office of the Government Chief Information Officer. The website was built in Drupal 8, with my focus being on both developing the front-end of the site and on achieving WCAG 2.0 Level AA accessibility standards. Another part of my role was to be a liaison between the website development agency and the OGCIO team, ensuring that government standards were followed, Drupal best practices were observed and that all technical aspects of the project were understood across all team members. The project followed the Agile methodology and required me to contribute to daily stand-ups, manage work tickets in Jira and present the progress of the website build in weekly meetings with a user reference group.
