Kate Grieve - kicking goals in the AFL

Kate Grieve has over 15 years experience in retail property management and is considered to be a leader in the industry. She is Centre Manager - Westfield Carousel and sits on the retail management sub committee of the Property Council of Australia.

In November 2008 Kate was elected to the board of the Fremantle Football Club, the first female director of the club in its 15-year history. Her election followed an online voting process by eligible club members that ran for approximately four weeks.

She has her eyes fixed on the big picture as it applies to a football club – the responsible, results driven management of a consumer business with a variety of external influences.

Kate has been part of the development and implementation of the Fremantle Football Club’s long term plan for ‘Sustained Success’. This involved implementing significant change including the board, senior management and football department, as well as changes to the playing list. A total of 23 new players have arrived at the club since she joined the board in 2008 and almost half of the players who played the 2010 season were in their first or second year in the AFL.
