- be accountable for the delivery of assigned research projects, including delegating work to the assigned project team, ensuring timelines are met (with the support of project managers and team members), and, for the coordination of project activities, review of and reporting on project status, and progress and sign off on project deliverables
- provide direction on developing and improving mechanisms to ensure the program delivers the greatest value, following best practices for evidence synthesis and delivery of products for medical devices and clinical interventions, such as health technology assessments, optimal use products, rapid reviews, horizon scans, and environmental scans
- ensure that direct reports deliver effective reports that communicate the research findings to meet customers’ needs (e.g., clinical reviews, briefing papers)
