Nick Mather will focus on the origination and development of IP across multiple platforms, looking for  commissioning opportunities with UK broadcasters and overseeing the Central Creative Team.

He will be supported by current head of entertainment development Jamie Ormerod, who is himself being promoted to head of entertainment and formats within the team.

Mather is credited with co-creating hit BBC1 gameshow Pointless and The Singer Takes it All for Channel 4.

During his time as MD of Remarkable he has overseen Two Tribes for BBC2 and Ejector Seat for ITV, among many other shows.
