I am the Programme Manager at FMG and am primarily responsible for managing project related aspects of the Forest Molecular Genetics Programme.
The primary responsibility of this role involves financial management, drafting and submitting of annual, half year and quarterly reports to funding bodies such as TIA, DST, NRF, THRIP, dti and industry partners.
I am also the liaison between the FMG Programme and the funding bodies listed above and coordinate timely reporting and financial management to comply with funding agreements signed with these bodies.
Additionally, my role involves interacting with the FMG programme leaders on various FMG related matters, co-ordinating project related matters within and between the research teams, while maintaining an accurate record of budgets, student information and other human resource information.
