Peter Core was schooled at the James Ruse Agricultural High School in New South Wales.[1] He then studied for a Bachelor of Rural Science and a Master of Economics from the University of New England.[2]
In 1993 Core was appointed Secretary of the Department of Industrial Relations, promoted from his role as a Deputy Secretary in the Department of Primary Industries and Energy.[3] He entered the role at a time of significant change, with the Minister for Industrial Relations Laurie Brereton planning a major re-write of the Industrial Relations Act.[1]
