Dominic Perrottet
Dominic Francis Perrottet (/ˈpɛroʊteɪ/ PERR-oh-TAY; French: [pɛ.ʁɔ.tɛ]; born 21 September 1982) is an Australian politician who served as the 46th premier of New South Wales from 2021 to 2023. He held office as leader of the New South Wales division of the Liberal Party of Australia, and assumed the position following the resignation of Gladys Berejiklian.
Perrottet previously served as treasurer of New South Wales and deputy leader of the New South Wales Liberal Party from January 2017 to October 2021, and was a member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly representing the seat of Epping from the 2019 state election until his resignation in 2024. He represented Castle Hill from 2011 to 2015 and Hawkesbury from 2015 to 2019. Perrottet served as Minister for Industrial Relations in the first Berejiklian ministry and as Minister for Finance, Services and Property in the first and second Baird ministries.
After the resignation of Berejiklian in October 2021, Perrottet won a leadership election to become the new premier and leader of the Liberal Party. He would lose power 18 months later in the 2023 state election, and resigned as leader shortly thereafter. In July 2024, he announced his resignation from the Legislative Assembly.
Perrottet was born in 1982, and raised in West Pennant Hills, Sydney. He is the third oldest of 12 children. His father, John Perrottet, works for the World Bank as the Global Lead for Tourism at the International Finance Corporation, in Washington, D.C. Perrottet's family were members of the Catholic prelature, Opus Dei.
Perrottet was educated at private schools Oakhill College in Castle Hill and Redfield College in Dural. Perrottet was active in student politics while studying commerce and law at the University of Sydney and campaigned for voluntary student unionism. He went on to work as a commercial lawyer for Henry Davis York in the areas of banking restructuring and insolvency law.
Perrottet was the President of the NSW Young Liberals Movement in 2005 and served on the NSW State Executive of the Liberal Party from 2008 to 2011.
Following the resignation of sitting Liberal MP Michael Richardson, Perrottet won Liberal preselection for the very safe Liberal seat of Castle Hill in November 2010, with the backing of right-wing power broker David Clarke. Clarke battled against Alex Hawke, Federal Member for Mitchell, to gain control of preselections. At the 2011 state election, Perrottet was elected with a swing of 12.2 points, winning 80.8 per cent of the two-party vote.
With the resignation of Barry O'Farrell as premier, and the subsequent ministerial reshuffle by Mike Baird, the new Liberal leader, Perrottet was appointed as Minister for Finance and Services in April 2014.
