In 2011 Tokram worked as the PNGRFL Highlands regional development officer.[4]

Tokram, along with Ivan Ravu, was appointed a caretaker manager of the Papua New Guinea Rugby League after the districts failed to meet the quorum to hold an AGM in early 2012.[5]

In mid-2012 he was involved in legal action against the PNGRL. The court ruled the legal action invalid and ruled that he was no longer an employee of the PNGRL.[6]
