The Voyager Manager is the liaison point between the researchers and the ship's crew. He is responsible for the group of technicians, on board the ship, who work to help to gather and store the scientific data.

It's a demanding job. Working at sea is full of surprises and one has to be ready to confront anything that arises, in order to keep the work going. Running a research vessel is a very expensive business. Part of Drew's job is to keep down-time to a minimum and to get the most out of every hour that the ship is at sea.
