Duties and Accountabilities

Team Lead for the Preventive Services Unit

The Team Lead of the Preventive Services Unit in INT (PSU TL) will be responsible for leading, supporting, and mentoring the PSU team to ensure that its work aligns with the strategic objectives of INT and the Prevention, Risk, and Knowledge Management (PRKM) unit.
