  8. Lead team/group meetings, seminars, workshops, and School research group activities to enhance the knowledge, outputs, and culture of the School/College.

  9. Oversee the organization, supervision, mentoring, and training of undergraduate and/or postgraduate students and less experienced project team members to ensure their effective development.

  10. Handle administrative tasks related to the research group and School activities, including budgets and expenditures.

  11. Contribute to teaching activities (e.g., demonstrating) and associated administrative tasks as assigned by the Head of School in consultation with the Principal Investigator.

  12. Stay updated with current knowledge and recent advancements in the field/discipline.

  13. Engage in personal, professional, and career development to enhance both specialist and transferable skills in line with career aspirations.
