travis rath

Public Relations Executive: travis@ecfs.com.au
Degree: B. Commerce-Accounting / B. Law ( 3rd Year)

As PR exec my role entails securing and managing ECFS sponsor relationships. It is a challenging role that strives to maximise the benefits of this relationship for both ECFS members and our sponsors. In 2010, the PR's will bring our members one major career event each semester on the 9th of March and 17th of August. Allowing our sponsors to get their message across and give members a chance to network with top-tier employers. I strongly encourage all MQ Faculty of Business & Economics students to make the most out of this year's ECFS offerings and get involved! What have you got to lose?
