Support for new operators

As a young operator, it’s important to learn about the tourism industry you operate in and begin making connections so you can access support, guidance and mentoring.  

To help you stay informed and connected, we encourage you to learn more about the West Australian tourism sector and Tourism WA, discover a full list of industry bodies you can work with and monitor the latest industry events on offer to see if there’s an opportunity right for you. 


Kings Park, Perth
Understanding our industry

From supporting more than 110,000 jobs, to generating billions in visitor spend each year, learn why WA’s tourism industry matters and how tourism is everyone’s business. We also have a breakdown of Tourism WA’s role within the sector and how we can help you with our Who’s Who In Tourism video.

Accessing support

We work closely with industry bodies, regional tourism organisations and development commissions to support West Australian tourism operators. Find out more about the marketing and advocacy work they provide on behalf of our agency.

How to work with us

We’ve created a How To Work With Us guide, which outlines the resources and opportunities Tourism WA offers to all operators. This includes information on WA’s destination brand, 10-year strategy, training courses, and recognition programs.
