Position Summary:
Under the supervision of the Research Data Officer, the Patent and Commercialization Administrator is responsible for the accurate and consistent maintenance of the University's intellectual property (IP) portfolio records, databases, and supporting documentation.

The incumbent coordinates administrative activities related to patent prosecution, monitors and ensures timely follow-up on critical deadlines, and facilitates communication among internal and external stakeholders, including Technology Transfer Managers, inventors, and external patent counsel.

The role requires a high degree of attention to detail, accuracy, organizational skills, and adherence to established procedures to ensure the integrity and reliability of IP information. The incumbent is responsible for reviewing, validating, and maintaining data, identifying and resolving discrepancies, and supporting continuous improvements to administrative processes.

Working within the Research Systems and Planning unit, the incumbent collaborates closely with other administrative coordinators and colleagues to ensure consistent, efficient, and seamless administrative support to the Office of the Vice-President, Research and Innovation (VPRI) and its stakeholders.

Primary Responsibilities:

1. Intellectual Property Data Management and Record Maintenance

Enter, update, verify, and maintain intellectual property information in databases, patent docketing systems, and electronic records management systems, ensuring that records are complete, accurate, and up to date.
Review and validate data to identify discrepancies, missing information, and inconsistencies, and take appropriate steps to resolve issues or refer them to the appropriate resource.
Maintain up-to-date records of invention disclosures, patent applications, issued patents, and related agreements to ensure that information is accurately recorded and consistently maintained across relevant systems.
Process requests for record updates and modifications, ensuring that changes are accurately recorded, verified, and documented.

Track, communicate reminders, and follow up on critical deadlines to ensure that required actions are completed accurately and within established timelines. Escalate approaching deadlines when needed.
Coordinate and communicate administrative activities related to patent filing, prosecution, maintenance fees, and renewals across multiple jurisdictions to relevant stakeholders.
Liaise with Technology Transfer Managers, external patent agents, foreign associates, and McGill inventors to coordinate administrative requirements, obtain necessary information, and facilitate the timely completion of patent-related activities.
Follow up on outstanding requests and documentation, ensuring that relevant parties are informed and that administrative activities progress according to established procedures.

3. Data Quality, Compliance, and Process Consistency

Apply consistent data entry and validation practices to maintain the integrity, accuracy, and reliability of information across systems.
Identify recurring data quality issues, procedural inconsistencies, or opportunities for improvement, and recommend appropriate corrective measures.
Provide guidance and clarification to VPRI colleagues regarding data entry requirements, documentation standards, and established administrative procedures.
Participate in the development, documentation, and implementation of standardized administrative procedures and work methods to improve accuracy, consistency, and operational efficiency.

4. Reporting, Administrative Support and Coordination

Compile, review, and analyze portfolio data: summary statistics of records, eRAP, and other analysis. Prepare reports and metrics for management, funding agencies, and other stakeholders, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of reported information.
Respond to information requests and coordinate with relevant colleagues to obtain, validate, and consolidate required data.
Support administrative activities related to commercialization, licensing, and intellectual property portfolio management.
Communicate clearly and proactively with internal and external stakeholders to facilitate information sharing, resolve outstanding issues, and ensure timely follow-up on administrative matters.
Enter and update data in the VPRI grant management system (eRAP)
Provide coverage for other members of the data team as needed, ensuring consistent adherence to established procedures for data entry and review. Identify and report administrative issues, inefficiencies, and workflow bottlenecks to the manager to support continuous process improvement.
