Working in Fremantle

Fremantle has a reputation as a highly desirable place to work, thanks to its liveability and its connections to Perth, the Western Trade Coast and the world through the Port of Fremantle.

It became a major industrial and commercial centre for Western Australia, and trade continues to be central to Fremantle’s identity as one of Australia’s largest shipping terminals and principal ports.

Fremantle’s infrastructure and amenities are a significant growth factor for business, with its links to transport corridors and the Trade Coast.  

When the work is done, Fremantle offers a highly walkable city, convenient access to picturesque beaches, vibrant markets, and a distinctive array of contemporary restaurants, bars, and shops.  

The city’s liveability allows businesses to attract and retain world-class talent, while it has a strong innovation ecosystem on the intersection of blue economy, immersive technologies and sustainability.

Fremantle welcomes new investment that supports people to live and work in the city, with flexible and adaptable approaches to planning resulting in a development-friendly city.
