He served as a minister in the government of Colin Barnett from March 2014 to September 2016.
Nalder was born in Narrogin, in Western Australia's Wheatbelt region. His father, Cambell Nalder, and grandfather, Crawford Nalder, were both National Party members of parliament. Nalder was educated at Wesley College, Perth, and the Curtin University of Technology. He holds a bachelor's degree in business and a graduate diploma in applied finance.

Nalder entered parliament at the 2013 state election, winning the seat of Alfred Cove from the independent incumbent Janet Woollard.
