Union veteran Grahame McCulloch becomes deputy chair of Uni Super

The former general secretary of the National Tertiary Education Union has long occupied a union position on the fund’s board.

There used to be but one position for a union rep but that changed in 2016 following a long campaign (CMM August 9 2013, April 28 2016).

The CPSU, which represents university staff used to have the other union spot. But when the CPSU rep resigned Uni Super’s board gave it to the NTEU nominee – which the CPSU went to court to block, and lost (CMM December 10 2020).  Sarah Roberts, an NTEU Victorian branch official is the other union rep.
