The Information Technology (IT) Division serves as the organization’s digital backbone, responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining all technology-related operations. In addition to managing the applications, infrastructure, data security, and desktop support functions common to many IT offices, the State Bar’s IT Division is expected to play a key role in digital transformation initiatives and integrating emerging technologies to drive innovation. By aligning technology with the State Bar’s strategic goals, the IT Division enables operational efficiency, fosters collaboration, and supports data-driven decision-making across the organization. 

The Chief Information Officer (CIO) provides leadership and direction in the development, implementation, operation, and maintenance of State Bar information systems, computer services, network communications, and management information services to accomplish strategic goals. The CIO is a member of the State Bar Leadership Team and as such is responsible for shared decision making on key issues impacting the organization overall. The CIO establishes and drives the State Bar IT planning, policies, and programs; recommends and oversees technology initiatives aligned with advancement of organizational priorities and objectives; and provides oversight for the operation and maintenance of the technology infrastructure and applications. Additionally, the CIO ensures proper technology standards and processes are established and followed, establishes and maintains superior data security and privacy standards, establishes and monitors service level measures and targets for all technology related support activities, provides leadership oversight for critical projects, and maintains relationships with the State Bar community and other agencies as appropriate. Finally, the State Bar’s first CIO will be a change agent who can quickly and effectively reshape the vision for and delivery of the State Bar’s IT function.
