Dean Winter MP

Member for Franklin

Tasmanian Labor Leader

Dean's focus has always been on making life better for Tasmanians and offering them the best services possible. 

He entered politics as a councillor in Kingborough, where he was raised and educated and where he lives with his young family. In 2018 at the age of 33, he was elected the youngest mayor in Kingborough’s history, and he entered Parliament as Member for Franklin in 2021.

Being able to step up into public life and help shape his community is a great honour.

While Dean was mayor, the council accelerated its program to improve roads, footpaths and public toilets. They built the state’s best playground at Kingston Park, fixed water quality at Blackmans Bay Beach and designed and funded the rebuild of Kingston. 

When he moved from local government to Parliament, Dean's philosophy and objective remained the same. He wants all Tasmanians to have the opportunity to build a good life for themselves and know they are part of a society that cares about them.

Before he entered politics, Dean worked at the Department of Treasury and Finance and in private industry. He understands that a strong society needs a strong economy. 

Tasmanians deserve good, well-paid jobs and this means we need thriving industries and businesses. Sensible policies create success for everyone. 

Thanks to our vast resources, our state has enormous potential. These resources belong to all Tasmanians and they must benefit from them, especially through fair energy prices.

As a father of two children, Dean is passionate about education and ensuring future generations can make the most of opportunities in our beautiful state.
