Reporting to the Senior Assistant Director (In-Employment Upgrading and Job Redesign), you will be part of the Workforce Development cluster in PSD.
You will work with public agencies to implement workforce development initiatives at the sectoral and agency level to help them transform the workforce and be more future-ready. The team works to enhance the relevance and diversity of public officers’ skills, partnering with public agencies and training providers to scope and implement in-employment skills training and conversion initiatives, competency-based HR management, and other workforce development strategies (e.g. job rotation).
One of PSD’s key catalyst and enabler for driving workforce development is the onboarding of an interactive AI-enabled One Talent Gateway (OTG) to empower officers to take charge of their career development. Through the platform, officers will access the competency requirements of different jobs, curated career pathways and personalised development opportunities (e.g. internal job openings, short-term attachments) according to their profiles and aspirations.
You will lead the team to drive the onboarding of public officers onto OTG, partner key vendors and stakeholders to develop and optimise the use of the platform to meet their workforce development ambitions and encourage active use of the platform and its resources. You will also support other workforce development initiatives within the cluster, such as the design and implementation of other in-employment skills training and in-service professional conversion programmes to enhance career development for public officers.
