History

In January 2010, Shine Australia was founded as a part of the Shine Group. It was jointly led by CEOs Mark Fennessy and Carl Fennessy, who had previously worked at FremantleMedia Australia and Crackerjack Productions.[2] Shine Australia is not to be mistaken for the long-serving entertainment and talent company Shine International Entertainment, who own the registered trademark, and have been operating in Australia since 1932.

In February 2016, producer Imogen Banks began to head a new division of Endemol Shine Australia called EndemolShine Banks, which focused on drama productions.[3]

In 2020, Peter Newman became the CEO.[4]
