Former journo Jake Mitchell is set to join Stan as a business and corporate development manager.
Following on from their collaboration on feature film 'The Second', Screen Queensland and Stan have partnered on a new fund that will support both up-and-coming and established creatives to develop high-end drama series for the streaming service.
Stan boss Mike Sneesby has been appointed the new CEO of Nine, succeeding Hugh Marks.
Martin Kugeler has taken over as Stan CEO, a role he has held in an interim capacity following former CEO Mike Sneesby’s appointment to the top job at Nine in April.
The Nine Network has reshuffled its acquisitions and programming teams in the lead-up to the launch of its subscription Video-on-Demand service.

Stan has warned the Federal Government that mandating minimum levels of spending on Australian content would undermine the streaming industry’s ability to generate the revenues needed to invest in high-quality Australian productions.
