Lead the development and application of integrated, quantitative desktop research and analysis on the economic, social and environmental impacts of pests and diseases (both realised and potential), and apply them to support biosecurity cost-benefit and resource allocation decision making.

Provide effective and timely high-level advice to the Department, the ABARES Executive, and other stakeholder agencies and organisations.
Provide strategic leadership to the program, build research and analysis capability, guide and mentor staff.
Build and maintain partnerships and ensure effective communication and consultation with key stakeholders in ABARES, the Department and the broader research community.
Conceive ideas for new projects based on stakeholder need and identify research opportunities for ABARES.
