  • Maintain compliance with relevant institutional, ethics, and grant reporting requirements.
  • Support the financial management of the Lab by working closely with the Garvan Finance team to track spending, perform budget forecasting, and generate reports.
  • Develop and amend submissions to Human Research Ethics Committees.
  • Support the production of scientific manuscripts and presentations, and funding applications to government, philanthropic, and industry bodies.
  • Support participant recruitment and consent, and the collection, processing, tracking, and storage of clinical samples.
  • Coordinate submission of clinical samples to the Garvan Sequencing Platform and other service providers, and support the secure transfer, storage, and exchange of datasets.
  • Provide support with the onboarding and supervision of junior staff and students.
  • Continuously surveying Lab operations to identify areas of inefficiency or risk, and work with the Lab Head to address these issues.

ABOUT YOU

  • Exceptional time management and organisational skills, with evidence of an ability to manage a complex and dynamic workload.
  • Excellent attention to detail.
  • A demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects on time and on budget, with a high degree of independence.
