Background
I began my career at Newcastle University in 2010 working for the Business Development and Enterprise team.
My role has developed considerably over time and I am now responsible for the financial aspects of the university IP portfolio. This includes the management of royalty payments and distributions.
My role requires that I work closely with Business Development Managers across all Faculties as well as liaising regularly with our finance team.
Externally, I develop good working relationships with licensees and IP contributors to ensure royalties are received and distributed in accordance with IP policy.
