Jeffrey Quinn announced as Labor’s candidate for Mackellar
Jeffrey Quinn has been endorsed as the Australian Labor Party candidate for Mackellar in the upcoming federal election.
A lifelong Mackellar resident, Mr Quinn has over 40 years of experience in the education sector.
After working as a primary school teacher and Head of the International Department at the Sydney Japanese School, Mr Quinn founded a successful tutoring business in Mackellar, which he currently operates.
“I’m deeply committed to our local community in the Northern Beaches. I’ve lived here all my life and served in many sporting and business organisations, as a teacher, coach, and father,” Mr Quinn said.
“I know how important cost of living is to Mackellar residents – and as a teacher, I know education can form a substantial part of household budgets.
“That’s why I’m dedicated to preserving and expanding Labor’s record of cutting student debt, increasing free TAFE enrolments, and cheaper childcare to take the pressure off working families.”
Jeffrey Quinn lives in the area with his family. His campaign will be officially launched on 16 February, 2025 by Senator Tony Sheldon.
Senator Tony Sheldon said:
“Jeffrey is a fantastic candidate whose entire working life has been put to the service of his community. His commitment to education, coaching and helping others makes him well-placed to represent Mackellar.”
“Jeffrey understands the needs and concerns of his electorate. His record of leadership and community involvement give him the compassion and competence to deliver for Mackellar.”
Jeffrey Quinn, Labor candidate for Mackellar stated:
“It’s an honour to represent Labor in the electorate I have lived in all my life, in what will be a vital time for the community.”
“I am confident that my experience in education, small business and in a number of volunteer roles can be of real benefit to the residents of this wonderful community.”
“Labor understands that cost of living is a real issue for many people, and I’m committed to building on our record of tax cuts, cheaper medicines, free TAFE, high speed broadband and expanded childcare to help support Mackellar families.”
“We will protect Medicare and expand bulk billing so that it is easier for everyone to see a doctor. I’ll fight to ensure that Mackellar residents enjoy the benefits of universal healthcare and stop the Coalition from undermining this great Labor initiative.”
