The Digital and Data Services Directorate (DDS)

DDS supports CCS with digital and technology design, implementation and service delivery. As a directorate we:

  • maintain the digital systems for CCS
  • work with our colleagues to deliver the business plan with a digital mindset

A prime example is the design and delivery of an Identity and Access Management System that gives over 30,000 suppliers and customers access to CCS services.

We are digital enablers

Some of the career paths available within DDS are:

  • Data insights
  • Project management

We leverage technology and data to redefine possibilities and help drive commercial growth for CCS. From my first day, the friendly, down-to-earth and relaxed culture made me feel welcome and at ease. The emphasis on teamwork and collaboration across projects means there are always opportunities to learn and grow. This creates a stimulating environment and rewarding work with talented colleagues who celebrate successes together.
