For Papua New Guinea Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative, Tim is leading a review of subnational payment flows and piloting multi-stakeholder subnational governance structures at the provincial and local levels. For the Natural Resource Governance Institute, Tim is working on methods to more effectively bring social and environmental considerations into the decision to (or not to) extract. Tim has also led applied projects to map the value chains of violent extremism and the extractives sector in Africa, understand the ‘development minerals’ sector in Zambia, and more effectively regulate the informal mining sector in Ghana.

Working across the private sector, public sector and civil society, Tim has also led projects in strategy development, participative policy formulation, leadership development, institutional strengthening, financial inclusion, entrepreneurship, micro, small and medium enterprise development, infrastructure development and community health

Tim holds a PhD in Organisational Psychology from The University of Queensland, is the Founding Director of Square Circle Global Development, and is a member of Transparency International PNG.
