At
@Austal, we’re proud to see talented young Western Australians like Emily Turley leading the way in shaping the state’s defence and shipbuilding future.
Emily, a first-year cabinetmaker apprentice, is part of the team constructing Evolved Cape-class Patrol Boats for the Royal
@Australian_Navy and
@AusBorderForce in Henderson – contributing to a proud legacy of world-class shipbuilding, right here in Western Australia.
“It’s really fun on the water and very busy. I didn’t know a ship could have so many levels – you almost lose each other,” Emily told the
@FinancialReview in an article highlighting the Committee for Perth ’s 2050 Summit held this week.
Emily represents the next generation of Western Australia’s maritime workforce – skilled, ambitious, and passionate about defence innovation. Her work is helping build not just ships, but a stronger, more sustainable future for the state’s economy and its people.
Austal is proud to be Australia’s strategic shipbuilder, supporting the growth of a sovereign defence industry and creating opportunities for the next generation of shipbuilders, engineers, and innovators.
