Isn't that most careers these days though? I work in the digitization department of a muniplicity in Denmark. We're LEAN-consultants, project-managers, service-designers and developers but most of what we do is about helping managers have less employees.
I don't think there is a single area we aren't covering. So that's everything from lawyers, hr-personal, various office workers to nurses, pedagogues, teachers and various social workers. Hell in the past 4 years, we've even said good bye to one person in my department and three in IT. No one has been fired though, so there hasn't really been a big focus on it. A lot of positions simply haven't been refilled. Basically we're in the process of quietly doing to every workplace what the assembly-line did to factories 100 years ago.
It's created new jobs of course, there wasn't a digitization department 20 years ago after all, but even my own field of software engineering is changing. 20 years ago you'd need a team and half a year to build what a single developer can get running in the cloud in a week today. Who knows what it'll look like when I'm 57.
