Michael Vyse

As Associate Director – Biodiversity, Michael works at the interface of all our teams to translate good ideas into fundable Nature-Based Solutions that are impact led and can be practically delivered.

Michael has two decades of experience in both the not-for-profit and government sectors applying his facilitation and technical skills to deliver collaborative, multidisciplinary landscape restoration projects that achieve social and environmental outcomes.

He holds qualifications in Landscape Management and Conservation and has worked for Greening Australia for 13 years in a variety of roles. These include managing our corporate relationships, facilitating conservation partnerships, securing funding for and delivering multi-million-dollar ecological restoration projects, embedding strategic direction and science in our Nature in Cities program and coordinating nation-wide business improvements to deliver more impactful and efficient ecological restoration at scale.

Halting and reversing biodiversity loss is one of the biggest challenges we face as a society. To compliment the protection of the nature that still remains, we need to massively ramp up our efforts to restore what we’ve lost if we’ve got any chance of being Nature Positive. Greening Australia is genuinely focussed on large-scale, high integrity ecological restoration that delivers measurable outcomes for nature and the communities who depend on it. I’m thrilled to be part of that.
