Service Victoria

COVID19 check-in, public facing transactions and design systems

Overview

A household name after the COVID19 pandemic, Service Victoria (SV) is the public facing organisation of the state government of Victoria, under the Department of Human Services.

I joined Service Victoria during the COVID19 pandemic and the Victorian lockdowns of 2021 as part of their intital expansion of the design team, commencing initially as a contractor intended to support design efforts in accordance with state government objectives during the infections spread.

Alongside my colleagues, I was involved in design efforts related to COVID exposure tracking, border control and travel restriction permits, vaccination status permits and the overall rapid ascension of the Service Victoria mobile app from a relatively unused tool, into an essential platform and spearhead enabling the state government to provide better digital services to the Victorian public.
