Another works, the operator of the 'Fukugyo Cloud' matching platform that connects individuals seeking side jobs with companies and local governments, has announced its collaboration with Wakayama Prefecture to recruit side-job advisors for municipalities within the prefecture. This recruitment is conducted on the 'Fukugyo Cloud' platform to solve administrative challenges through collaboration between government staff and private-sector side-job talent. The initiative focuses on hiring and providing hands-on support from talent with professional knowledge and practical experience to promote DX in six cities and towns within the prefecture.
Supporting DX for Local Governments using Side-Job Talent As the population ages and decreases, municipalities face numerous challenges, including maintaining and improving administrative services, streamlining operations, and responding to diverse resident needs. While advancing administrative management through digital technology is essential, many municipalities struggle to secure specialized DX talent or accumulate necessary know-how.
In response, Wakayama Prefecture is conducting hands-on support using side-job talent to bolster DX efforts among its municipalities. This project involves appointing side-job advisors in fields requiring specific expertise, such as ICT-BCP formulation, BPR (Business Process Reengineering), generative AI utilization, and information security measures, to solve administrative issues alongside municipal staff.
Since its founding in May 2019, Another works has promoted 'side jobs'—a workstyle allowing individuals to hold multiple roles beyond their primary employment for income, skill development, career advancement, and self-actualization—across Japan. Its flagship service, 'Fukugyo Cloud,' has surpassed 100,000 registered talents, 2,500 total adoptions, and 250 total municipal adoptions as of June 2026. Leveraging this experience, the company aims to contribute to the DX promotion and resident service improvement of municipalities in Wakayama Prefecture.
Background of DX Talent Recruitment in Wakayama Prefecture In recent years, the importance of promoting DX in municipalities to streamline operations and improve resident services has increased. However, it is often difficult for internal staff to handle specialized domains like ICT-BCP formulation, BPR, generative AI, and information security.
Wakayama Prefecture has recruited side-job advisors for six cities and towns in this round. By having talent with specialized knowledge and practical experience from the private sector collaborate with municipal staff, the prefecture aims to support DX promotion and achieve sustainable administrative management and improved resident services.
