Simon Kennedy is your Liberal Candidate for Bennelong.
Born in West Ryde, Simon has always championed our community, from School Captain of Epping Boys High School to the Ryde City Youth Council.
Raised by a single mother early in life, who taught him the value of hard work, Simon started his career working the check-out queues of Epping Coles and as a furniture removalist for Epping Removals.
After University, Simon’s career took him around the world, advising Governments to design and delivery policies that helped small businesses succeed and create jobs.
While working in the US he met his wife Nila, and the couple moved home to give their two young children the same upbringing and opportunities he had.
Simon believes Australia is at its best when creating opportunities for hard working families, small business owners and protecting our retirees.
As your strong voice in Canberra, Simon will fight to secure our economic recovery from the COVID pandemic, and secure the infrastructure needed to keep up with our growing community needs including upgrades for local roads so we can spend less time in traffic and more time with our families.
As part of the Morrison Liberal team, Simon will work hard to build a strong economy and stronger future.
