Chris Jones, who previously held the position of Head of Format Development, has been promoted to Creative Director with immediate effect. Since joining the company in 2002, Chris has become an integral member of the management team and has been an instrumental force in the recent expansion.
With over 13 years of experience in factual entertainment, specialist factual and entertainment, Mike Reilly has developed a reputation for original and dynamic approaches to programme making.
In his role at Green Inc, Mike will be responsible for heading up factual entertainment development, however given his substantial experience in the genres of Entertainment and Comedy he will be an asset across all parts of the company.
As an active producer of youth and counter-culture media, David Sherman will play a major role in new media platforms and content development. David has extensive experience of developing multi-platform content and web design and brings valuable expertise to the team.
Green Inc is currently producing a range of entertainment, comedy and factual entertainment including a Dale Winton lottery pilot for BBC, a comedy lab for Channel 4 and an online pilot for SlinkTV for BBC Switch and The Afternoon Show for RTÉ.
