Wylde was ordained in 1907. His first post was as curate at St Simon Zelotes, Bethnal Green^[4] after which he was vicar of the parish until 1921. Emigrating to Australia, he was a member of the Brotherhood of the Good Shepherd, a period he considered the happiest of his ministry.^[5] From 1923 until 1928 he was principal of the order.

Appointed a coadjutor bishop of Bathurst in 1927^[6] he was enthroned as diocesan bishop a decade later on 23 February 1937.^[5] In 1942 a parish within his diocese^[7] brought an action against him for introducing The Red Book^[8] a perceived heretical text into the diocese's liturgy. He was appointed a CBE in 1957, the year before his death.
