The primary role of the project manager will include project oversight, including but not limited to human research ethics applications, risk management procedures, managing industry collaboration, managing consumer and stakeholder engagement, data collection, data management and manuscript preparation. The project manager will be supported by an experienced research team, with a focus on mentoring and developing the research fellow.
