Government appoints DTO CEO

The federal government has appointed Paul Shetler as the CEO for the Digital Transformation Office (DTO).

Shetler has 20 years’ experience leading IT and business transformation projects, most recently as an executive at the UK’s Government Digital Service (GDS) and as chief digital officer for the UK Ministry of Justice.

Under his leadership, the Ministry of Justice delivered four of the UK Government’s 25 digital transformation exemplars.

In a statement released this morning, Malcolm Turnbull said, “Paul was the outstanding candidate following an extensive executive search and competitive recruitment process, and has been appointed to the DTO for a period of five years.”

The DTO was established as an Executive Agency within the Communications Portfolio on 1 July 2015 to deliver government services that are easier to access, simpler to use and faster to transact.
