Sophie Park

Sophie Park is an Australian economic journalist with a focus on how policy, markets and household spending intersect in everyday life. She began her reporting career in regional newsrooms across New South Wales, then moved to national coverage where she built a reputation for translating complex subjects—like interest rates, productivity data and superannuation—into clear, well-sourced stories. Over the past decade, Sophie has reported on federal budgets, the Reserve Bank’s decisions, energy and inflation trends, and the economic impact of trade and global supply shifts. Her work regularly draws on interviews with economists, union and business leaders, and Treasury officials, alongside data analysis from public releases and reputable research. Colleagues note her calm, methodical approach to breaking economic news, and her commitment to explain “what changed” and “what it means” for consumers. She has progressed from general reporting to senior economics coverage, including developing recurring explainers and market-ready briefing pieces for readers.
