He left school at 15 to take up an apprenticeship as a fitter at a local chain-making factory.
In the second Rudd ministry, which held office from June to September 2013, he served as Parliamentary Secretary for Housing and Homelessness.
In October 2013, Cameron was appointed Shadow Minister for Human Services in the Shadow Ministry of Bill Shorten.
