  • Put forward creative recommendations and options to solve challenging design questions that are in line with CAAT's strategic vision and risk principles.
  • Carry out research in order to review and respond to complex questions that require indepth analysis and stakeholder consultations. Be inquisitive and seek to understand an issue in full.
  • Support the development and review of resources, including communications, forms, tools, updates to the Plan Text, and other documents.
