Network Ten has appointed Cathie Schnitzerling as Sydney News director.
She currently heads Tens Brisbane News team, and her move follows the decision by David Breen, who has held the Sydney News director role since 2003, to leave Ten at the end of December.
Ten’s head of News, Jim Carroll said, “In her eight years with Ten News, Cathie has excelled as a senior producer, news editor and since 2005 as head of our Brisbane News team.
"With her keen editorial judgement and strong management skills, Cathie is more than ready to take on the challenge of the Sydney market."
Following six years reporting for a number of Nine programs, she moved to ABC television where she presented and reported for Landline and also worked as a radio presenter on The Country Hour and ABC Coast-FM.
She joined Ten News in Melbourne in 1997 as a senior news producer and transferred to Brisbane two years later.
She has produced two independent documentaries and a short drama. Among her professional citations is a Queensland Media Award for Best Documentary in 2000.
