Pictured above: Mulloon Institute Board (minus Robert Purves) with CEO Carolyn Hall, December 2025.
The appointments follow an extensive public recruitment process that commenced in August 2025 and the Board was delighted with the number and calibre of applications – which was a testament to the Institute’s standing in Australia and validation of members’ support for an open and public process.
This exceptional team brings expertise in a range of professions and skills that will help us to continue to drive our mission to build on the founders’ legacy. The new Board is focussed on continuing to grow our impact in this important work of rehydrating and repairing landscapes as well as ensuring the core business continues to be financially viable and healthy.
We are looking forward to such an accomplished Board joining the organisation at a time of great opportunity and growth for the Institute.
With the Board now in place and plans for increased member engagement next year, I am greatly looking forward to being part of the Institute in 2026.
Rose Nairn OAM and Robert Purves AM will remain on the Board for a short further period to assist with the transition arrangements. A summary of each of the directors’ significant background and experience is linked to their names at left, and available for download here.
Best wishes for a safe, happy and (re)hydrated Summer break.

Wilfred Finn
Chair
