  I have significant experience providing advice to senior managers and ministers on cross-cutting departmental, portfolio, and government-wide issues and initiatives, such as the Speech from the Throne and federal Budget.. To provide this advice, I manage multi-disciplinary, department-wide work teams. I am also currently overseeing the development of the department’s multi-phased medium-term policy agenda.My team and I research policy issues and prepare analytical papers, analyze economic and socio-economic trends and provide recommendations on policy issues, and regularly write briefing notes and presentations that include policy analysis, options and recommendations for senior officials, the Deputy Minister and Minister.Our focus is putting issues into context and constructing a narrative to support the priorities of the Minister and the Government’s broader agenda. As such, we liaise with central agencies and other federal government departments.I also have experience managing human resources and financial resources, including the hiring of staff and oversight of budgets.
