Ransom named as new Fremantle Port Authority CEO

WA Ports Minister, David Michael, has today announced the appointment of Jodie Ransom as CEO of the Fremantle Port Authority commencing 1 July.

The Minister said Ms Ransom (pictured) brings a wealth of experience having spent more than 30 years in the ports and marine industries.

She was previously the General Manager – Operations at FPA and is currently the acting CEO since the tragic passing of former CEO Michael Parker. She has also held senior positions with CBH, Svitzer and Alcoa.

“I congratulate Jodie Ransom on her appointment to CEO of Fremantle Port Authority,” said Mr Michael.

“I am pleased to see the appointment of strong internal candidates to WA’s port authority CEO roles, showing the benefit of good succession planning.

“It was clear that Jodie’s breadth of experience across port operations, marine and shipping as well as commodity export experience made her an ideal candidate for this appointment by the FPA Board.

“Fremantle Port Authority has a significant investment plan to deliver and has a vital role in the development of industry in Western Australia. I look forward to working with Jodie to realise the opportunities in front of us,” he said.
