Closing in 3 day(s)

What the role is

The Government Partnerships & Engagement Group (GPEG) contributes to the development of a collaborative government that empowers partnerships and engagement (PE) with citizens for a better Singapore. It does this through the development of public sector capabilities in partnerships and engagement, external partnerships and the design and organisation of Whole-of-Government (WOG) PE initiatives. Within GPEG, the Planning & Development (P&D) team drives the development of public sector PE capabilities in the areas of PE policy, organisational capacity, workforce planning and development, and stakeholder management and engagement. The intern will contribute to the creation of a knowledge repository aimed at enhancing the Partnership and Engagement (PE) capabilities in MCCY’s Government Partnership and Engagement Group (GPEG) and the broader Public Service. This repository will assimilate and organise a wide array of foundational PE documents and will contribute significantly to the efficiency and effectiveness of PE work within MCCY and the Public Service. The intern will tackle the challenge of distilling complex and diverse information into a user-friendly format through exploring innovative solutions. This will culminate in the creation of an internal knowledge repository that supports division-wide knowledge management and alignment, including building a GenAI chatbot prototype to house the repository. As a secondary objective, the project will explore the potential for creating an external-facing GenAI first-stop resource hub for the broader Public Service. Through this, the intern will learn first-hand about the partnership and engagement domain in the Public Service in its current operating environment. The intern will be able to apply product planning and development skills, exercising key stakeholder engagement and critical thinking capabilities.
