Imagine:
a. Ensuring that Singapore remains connected always to the world via our digital routes, not just the traditional air and sea routes
b. Spurring SMEs to use AI practically, cutting costs, transforming business models and delighting customers
c. Working with the industry to keep the online streets of Singapore safe, just like our physical streets
d. Forging with private and people sector partners an inclusive society as Singapore digitalises, where no one, whether young or old, is left behind
As ASDF, these are some of the bold dreams we turn into reality.
At IMDA, public communications work is not only about telling catchy stories or headlines. It’s about empowering many more to better embrace our digital future. Because when technology meets powerful storytelling, that is when real change happens. You too can be an ASDF.
We are looking for that new ASDF, a creative mind who can see beyond the buzzwords, and turn digital transformation from a fancy techie phrase into stories that resonate in void decks and board rooms alike. So, come, join us, and be one of the cool kids doing cool stuff at a cool place we call IMDA and our home.
