No one.
There is no representative of the Queen of England in Australia's Federal government.
There is the position of Governor-General which is a titular role currently, 2009, held by Quentin Bryce. The person is often someone with legal experience because they have the role of ensuring that the laws passed by Parliament are in agreement with the Constitution, that the Prime Minister and the Ministers are acting lawfully. Controversially, the Governor-General can dismiss a Prime Minister if there is a no confidence motion passed.
The position is filled by a person recommended by the PM who passes this recommendation to the Queen of England.
"In essence then, the Governor-General’s role is to protect the Constitution and to facilitate the work of the Commonwealth Parliament and Government. For example, before giving assent to legislation, the Governor-General must be satisfied that the proposed law has passed both Houses of Parliament and that the necessary certification from the Attorney General has been obtained." - The Governor-General of Australia ( href="http://www.gg.gov.au/")
