Before politics

Much of Mulino's career has been spent working in the area of economic policy. For several years he worked at the Commonwealth Department of Finance and the Attorney-General's Department. Mulino has also worked widely in the public service, having previously worked as an adviser to Senator Jacinta Collins and as Senior Economics Adviser to Victorian Premier Steve Bracks and Commercial Adviser to Victorian Treasurer John Lenders. He has assisted in the Expenditure Review Committee process on two State Budgets.[4]

Mulino worked as a consultant to the Private Sector Advisory Services Group of the World Bank, in addition to undertaking research into the relationship between international capital flows, migration and the impacts of an ageing society at the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve of the United States.[5]

Mulino also served as the Financial Services and Economic Adviser to the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations, Minister for Financial Services and Superannuation, Bill Shorten, where he led the establishment of, and the Minister's interaction with, the Natural Disaster Insurance Review, as well as government's adoption of the Investment Manager Regime, the key recommendation arising from the Johnson Review into Australia as an international financial centre.[6]

Immediately prior to the 2014 Victorian Election, Mulino was Director of Policy at Pottinger, working on projects to advise the government.[7]

Political career

Mulino was a councillor, deputy mayor and acting mayor at the City of Casey.[4]

Between 2014 and 2018, he served as Parliamentary Secretary for Treasury and Finance in the first Andrews Ministry. Mulino did not seek re-election at the 2018 state election, and was preselected by the Labor Party to contest the new federal House of Representatives seat of Fraser at the 2019 federal election. Despite a nominal 5.61% swing against Labor, Mulino was elected with a two-party-preferred margin of 14.18%.[3]
