Fraser, who most recently served as Chief of Staff to former Minister for Veterans’ Affairs and Defence Personnel, the Honorable Andrew Gee MP, has had a long career in Australian politics at the national, state, and local levels.
He has also advised industry groups, including the Minerals Council of Australia, educational institutions, including Charles Sturt University, government agencies, and companies on the development and implementation of their communications, advocacy and issues management strategies.
In addition, Fraser brings to EGA a strong background in policy formulation and delivery in both economic and social policy portfolios where he has actively shaped policy outcomes at both the state and federal levels in Australia.
