- Ensure the MDBA’s social and economic research investments support the strategic aims of the MDBA in relation to Basin Plan implementation and the Basin Plan Review
- Prepare written material for internal and external audiences
- Represent the MDBA, engage with stakeholders, and supervise junior staff.
