STRATEGIC POSITIONS ACROSS INDUSTRIES
Wyllie holds strategic positions in
both direct property and a
concentrated portfolio of small to
mid-cap public and private
companies.
Our prerequisite for investment consideration is that any development or initiative must be a meaningful endeavour that we can be proud of; something that creates a legacy for the community and all three generations of our family.
Investment decisions are based on the complete alignment of our shareholders: managing director and mother of two, Melissa Karlson; non-executive director and father of two, Luke Wyllie; and non-executive director, Rhonda Wyllie.
DIRECT EQUITIES
Being a family office, we have a natural affinity for companies where board and management have significant skin in the game.
Wyllie often deploys capital as passive investor but can assume an active investor role where appropriate. We often assist companies with ongoing funding and board composition.
MANAGED FUNDS
Wyllie holds substantial investments with both domestic and international fund managers across a number of purpose-specific funds focused on actively managed and high-conviction outcomes.
Asset classes that are a focus for Wyllie include public and private equities and alternative investments.
OUR PROPERTIES
Perth Surf Park
Opening in Summer 2025/2026, the Perth Surf Park is set to become a major sporting, tourism and entertainment destination in Western Australia.
Nominated by the Western Australian Government as a State Significant Project, the surf park will feature a full range of exciting amenities, including the Southern Hemisphere’s largest Wavegarden Cove surfing lagoon, a high-performance surfing academy, health and wellness centre, 3,000-person capacity events lawn, glamping accommodation, beach club, quality restaurants and bars, casual workspaces, and retail stores.
The project is being jointly developed by Wyllie and Aventuur, a global creator of integrated surf park developments. Wyllie’s 50% cornerstone investment in the project reflects our commitment to supporting sustainable tourism assets and the sport of surfing in Western Australia.
Perth Convention
And Exhibition
Centre
Update 16 January 2024
Wyllie is pleased to announce that, together with its partner Brookfield, we have entered negotiations with the state Government regarding the proposed redevelopment of the PCEC.
As the oldest and smallest major convention centre in Australia, the PCEC is no longer able to fairly compete for international and national business and other events to ultimately achieve its full potential to drive tourism, visitation and economic growth to the State. Wyllie & Brookfield have submitted a concept proposal to the State Government and will work collaboratively with the Government to assess the merits of the proposal, which aims to not only increase the competitiveness, capability and capacity of the convention centre, but to create a world-class waterfront precinct for the people of Perth and Western Australia.
Wyllie is a proudly Western Australian family business and actively seeks out projects that can have a positive, real and enduring impact on our local communities. Together with Hillary’s Boardwalk and the Perth Surf Park, this current proposal is no exception. The opportunity to incorporate Noongar knowledge and culture in a truly meaningful way across the entire precinct and to create ongoing social and economic opportunities for all WA is an exciting prospect. We look forward to working collaboratively with both State, the community and all stakeholders to achieve great outcomes.

Located an hour’s drive southwest of Perth, Murray River Farm encompasses 1,525 hectares of prime sheep and beef cattle country.
Offering spectacular views west over the coastal plain to the Indian Ocean, here we are developing one of the best breeding herds of Black Angus beef cattle in Western Australia.
Hillarys Boardwalk Retail Precinct
Hillarys Marina is recognised internationally as one of Western Australia’s unique waterfront locations and features in the top five tourism destinations for the Perth metropolitan area.
The asset comprises retail leaseholds fully integrated with the marina, residential and recreational facilities, and access to Rottnest Island ferry services.

A strategic investment for the Wyllie property portfolio, this property offers flexibility and multiple options to unlock value.
