Life Member (Former Treasurer) - Freya McCormick

Freya McCormick was the Treasurer for AEV for five and a half years, from November 2013 to August 2019. During her time as Treasurer, Freya helped steer the organisation through a period of transition which included a major move from AEV’s long occupied offices in Carlton, substantial changes to the organisation’s structure and funding sources, the development of a new visual identity, and a shift to a more web-based approach to internal operations and member services. Freya brought a calm and practical approach to her role as Treasurer.

In her day job Freya worked as an economist with the Victorian Public Service. On the AEV Board, Freya was a strong communicator and drew on her skills in financial analysis to identify financial risks and work with the Board to develop and implement solutions. Freya’s non-teaching and education background also provided a different perspective on potential challenges and opportunities for AEV. Freya’s skills as Treasurer helped AEV avoid future financial problems and improved our organisation’s economic outcomes during a crucial period of transition. AEV thanks Freya for leaving our organisation in the strong economic position it is today.
