The Vice-President, Research & Innovation (VPRI) portfolio supports the University of Toronto as a top public research university in the world. Our mission is to create the most supportive environment possible so that our researchers, innovators and learners can do what they do best - advance understanding and apply new knowledge. Our work supports, fosters and promotes the research and innovation culture and activities of our faculty, staff and students, along with our partner hospitals, funding sponsors, and partners in the public and private sector.

The Manager also leads the development and rollout of ISI programs and funding competitions, and establishes and maintains the portfolio trackers, dashboards and reporting processes used to collate reports and monitor key outcomes. The Manager drafts and negotiates agreements, and oversees the document and information management systems and practices that keep the portfolio’s records and data organized and accessible

In support of the portfolio’s communications and governance needs, the Manager prepares and oversees reports, proposals, slide decks, memos and other communications, and provides strategic oversight of ISI websites and digital platforms.
