Freedom of movement was always going to be a problem whether we were in or out of the EU.
A lot of the problem stemmed from the UK's failure to manage the settlement and location of immigrants which was often in areas under-resourced to meet the needs of the immigrants and the needs of local people.
If we give up the EU single market for trading in the European Economic Area we may be able to introduce the Australian style points system to control immigration but I'm not sure about that.
EDIT: The only way to guarantee less immigration is to make sure every available job is taken or filled by a UK national.
