Cathy McCormick – Monash Branch & Former National VP Professional Staff

I'm voting for Ruth Jelley to continue her good work as our Assistant Secretary for Professional Staff in the Victorian Division of the NTEU.

She is an empathetic, effective, and experienced advocate for members. In her vision for our union, inclusivity isn't just a slogan – it's a core principle. Ruth stands for a union that represents all workers, ensuring that every voice is heard and every member is valued.

Ruth has succeeded in raising the profile of professional staff issues within the NTEU, influencing union members and leaders at all levels during this bargaining round. She has demonstrated her commitment and deserves the opportunity to continue working with branches on implementing and enforcing the improved conditions for professional staff.
