  • Assist in project system-related matters arising from system enhancements and evolving organisational structures.

Stakeholder management and reporting

  • Serve as a liaison between research teams, institutional support functions, and external partners — including industry collaborators and academic partners — to facilitate coordination, manage expectations, and ensure alignment on deliverables and timelines.
  • Coordinate institutional reporting and prepare updates, reports, and materials for governance forums and stakeholder engagement.

Standards and continuous improvement
