Brad Pettitt

Hi, i'm brad pettitt. A freo local, a dad and parliamentary leader of the Greens (WA).

I was first elected to WA Parliament in 2021, where I was the sole Greens MP for four years, and was re-elected at the 2025 state election as part of a strengthened Greens team that now holds the balance of power in the upper house. 

Before entering Parliament, I was Mayor of Fremantle where I came face-to-face with many of the challenges our society faces every day – from climate change to homelessness – but where I also learnt the power, and importance, or community. 

My background as Dean of the School of Sustainability at Murdoch University and having grown up in the Perth Hills – now some of the most fire-prone areas of Perth – gave me the determination to do everything I can to help tackle the climate crisis. 

Perth is one of the longest cities in the world - and getting longer! We can’t tackle the climate crisis unless we address urban sprawl, housing affordability and density, declining urban bushland and future-proof our state’s energy needs. 

Alongside your newly elected WA Greens team I look forward to holding the Cook Labor government to account on climate change, addressing the housing crisis working to make Perth a more liveable and sustainable city for the future.
