About Us
The Department of Government Services (DGS) was established on 1 January 2023 to improve everyone’s experience of doing business and interacting with the Victorian government. We bring important day-to-day services together in one department to make things easy and seamless for Victorians and businesses. We are doing this by connecting and digitising our systems and platforms across state and local government as well as streamlining our corporate and procurement services.

Sector Engagement and Program Delivery branch
The Sector Engagement and Program Delivery branch administers a range of funded programs that are provided to support Victorian councils and communities. These include funding for council, library and community projects, as well as allocating Commonwealth funding. Teams work closely with industry, stakeholder, and government partners to ensure effective co-design and feedback in administering priorities.

Funded Programs teams develop and implement high quality, responsive, and timely government funding programs that support local government and community organisations to deliver critical infrastructure and services to meet the needs of Victorians. The branch also provides administrative and policy support to the Victorian Local Government Grants Commission. Teams support strategic program and capability review; design; funding provision and administration; and stakeholder management for portfolio responsibilities across the Consumer Affairs and Local Government outputs. Staff support councils and stakeholders receiving funding to utilise and deliver these funded programs through oversight and best practice approaches.

The Programs and Engagement team develops and maintains stakeholder engagement strategies, including strategies for engagement with councils and peak bodies. The team also provides secretariat and administrative support for Local Government Victoria and Council CEO forums, and ensures the Minister is supported with strategic local government stakeholder engagement initiatives such as Secure Work Reporting and the Victorian Aboriginal Local Government strategy (VALGs). Further, the team supports the branch with coordinating and prioritising program management and delivery responsibilities.

The Manager, Programs and Engagement also supports the Director, Program Delivery and Sector Engagement in the development and delivery of key funding programs that support Victorian councils and communities.
