Mid-career recruitment (administrative personnel)
- Last Updated:
Let's go open a new door.
The significance of the digital society is being discussed now more than ever before. Efforts to break down the barriers that hinder digital transformation are accelerating. Against this backdrop, we must never lose sight of what digitalisation is for. We will thoroughly consider it from the perspective of the people of Japan, present our vision and direction, incorporate it into concrete measures, and make every effort to gain their understanding. We, Digital Agency, are in charge of that mission.
The government has various ministries and agencies that promote their missions independently. In contrast, Digital Agency is a new organization that horizontally links vertically divided ministries and agencies. It will have comprehensive coordination functions and build information systems that connect the national and local governments as well as each ministry and agency. We will implement administrative reforms with digital technology in order to provide convenient and comfortable services to the people. We will eliminate division and promote cooperation.
