Fremantle Ports is pleased to announce the appointment of Ms Jodie Ransom to the role of Chief Executive Officer (CEO), commencing 1 July 2024.

Ms Ransom brings a wealth of experience to the role having spent more than 30 years in the ports and marine industries. She was General Manager Operations at Fremantle Ports and is currently the acting CEO since the passing of former CEO Michael Parker.
