Over the past two years he has overseen a run of success in terms of commissions won, audience and award success across a range of output from EastEnders to classic drama such as Cranford and BBC Four's The Curse Of Comedy season.
Prior to joining the BBC Nick was one of the leading producers working within British film and television.
Nick began working as a freelance producer in 1995. His credits include London Bridge for Carlton TV and Hope And Glory and Deceit for BBC One.
A successful relationship with Company Pictures followed, where he produced The Life And Adventures Of Nicholas Nickleby for ITV and then the adaptation of Zadie Smith's White Teeth for Channel 4.
In 2003 Nick produced his first feature film, Ladies In Lavender, directed by Charles Dance, for Scala Productions.

A summary is published where there is something to declare and where there is nothing to declare. Occasionally an individual will have something to declare but due to the personal nature of the declaration we do not publish details as to do so would breach the Data Protection Act.
