The Project Manager may be assigned to one or more projects depending on the needs of the Division.

    Key activities include developing relationships and communicating with stakeholders, planning and overseeing new program design to ensure it addresses learning needs of rural practitioners, developing funding proposals, reports, and contracts, developing and actioning work plans, leading committees and working groups, overseeing project operations including program finances, planning human resources, optimizing team performance, and leading research and evaluation-related activities within assigned projects.
