Communicate findings from food safety risk assessment through stakeholder engagement, conference presentations, scientific publications, and project reports.
Develop and maintain a network of local and overseas scientific experts and food safety regulators for discussions on the science, risk assessment, risk management and risk communication of food safety issues.

Able to work effectively in a team or independently.
Demonstrate initiative, drive, and willingness to take on additional duties when required.
