West Perth Competitors

With a distinct leadership role as the Capital City authority of Western Australia, the City of Perth offers an array of interesting and diverse career opportunities. Perth is a prosperous and highly livable city with a robust plan for the years ahead. The City has a strong focus on revitalising and enhancing civic spaces such as laneways and parks. An invigorated sense of place is being created through the provision of public art as well as a variety of free activities, from major-scale events that draw an international crowd, to early morning fitness classes for everyone in the community. Major infrastructure projects transforming Perth for residents, workers and tourists include Elizabeth Quay, Perth City Link and Riverside.
