About Ports North

Ports North is responsible for leading nine regional and remote ports in Far North Queensland. We are one of the most diverse port operators in the country, dedicated to creating economic opportunities and connecting communities. Our network extends across maritime sectors including trade, transport, tourism, marine services and defence. It means we can significantly impact social and environmental sustainability within the communities where we work and across our industry. With a significant presence in Cairns, we are positioned at the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef welcoming visitors from around the world. We attract major cruise liners and international superyachts benefitting local businesses and we are home to a growing maritime repair, maintenance and overhaul sector. We make sure kids can be ferried to school in the Torres Strait, and critical minerals and bulk commodities can be shipped direct from remote parts of the Cape to the world. We maintain and invest in infrastructure that creates possibilities for everyone, from families and small businesses to global corporations. Our business is made up of more than 90 staff including port service officers, maintenance crew, project and property managers, marine pilots, compliance and community engagement specialists. We encourage a culture of performance, where our people are clear about expectations and can make decisions that benefit local communities. Ports North is a Queensland Government-Owned Corporation (GOC) responsible to the Hon Brent Mickelberg, Minister for Transport and Main Roads and the Hon Rosslyn Bates, Minister for Finance, Trade, Employment and Training. GOCs are services identified as essential to the economy, providing critical infrastructure to the state.
