The first ever Citizens Lobbyist & the Punters Top 5 Policies

We held the Dinner, we raised the $80k, you voted for your Top 5 Policies... Now we have hired the Lobbyist and the work starts.

The First Ever Citizens Lobbyist: Rachel Smith

Rachel knows how Canberra works — and how to make it work for you.

With over a decade in government relations and lobbying, she's gone in to bat for some of Australia's most important industries: transport, housing, health, logistics. The industries that keep the country running but rarely get a seat at the table.

Rachel's got a reputation for cutting through the noise — turning complex policy problems into clear strategies that actually move decision-makers.
