Customer Engagement Team Manager (seconded to this position)

Research & Development Tax Incentive (RDTI)

Enhancing R&D for kiwi businesses

I work as the team manager for the Customer Engagement Team for R&D tax incentives. My diverse professional background covers both research and finance and so positions me well to engage with clients from different industries.

Successful research and development requires a balance of both the technical and financial aspects of a project. My scientific and business administration degrees mean I’ve got a balance of skills to support innovators who are working hard to find solutions to the biggest challenges of our times.

Getting to know your colleagues in a large organisation is challenging. My proudest professional moment was when I invented “Coffee Roulette” - a scheme to connect everyone at Callaghan Innovation regardless of their location.
