Meredith has worked at the AEU (Australian Education Union) for the past 9 years. Prior to that she was a Drama and Humanities teacher and leader in public schools for 20 years (mostly secondary but some primary).
She has undertaken various roles at the AEU ranging from organising union members in worksites (schools, preschool and TAFE) to managing individual and workplace disputes as an industrial organiser.
