Sharyn will be joining Network 10 to anchor the 5pm Queensland news bulletin, bringing the 10 News First show back to its Brisbane studios after being helmed from Sydney. Sharyn described her new job as a 'full-circle moment' as she returns to Network 10 after beginning her metro news career with the channel back in 1990. 'I wonder if my security tag still works,' she joked in a video announcing the news.
'Returning to 10 News First feels like coming home,' the veteran broadcaster added in a statement. 'Network 10 gave me my first big break in the early 90s, and to be back here, delivering a local news service for Queenslanders, is beyond exciting.' 10 News First's current presenter Sandra Sully will hand over the reins to Sharyn next month.
Sharyn grew up in the North Queensland town of Babinda and got a Bachelor of Business Communications in Brisbane, before kicking off a career in journalism. She was recruited by Brisbane's Channel 10 newsroom at the age of 24 as an on-the-road reporter and update presenter. Sharyn moved to Sydney's Nine Network in 1992 and became a regular newsreader on the Today Show, before moving to the Seven Network in 2007.

'When you work in TV for as long as I have, not a day goes by when you aren't expecting the proverbial tap on the shoulder...
After 38 years, my shoulder tap has finally come,' she began. 'It wasn't quite how I expected it to end at Channel Seven. I was actually sitting at the hairdressers for work, when I got the call informing me, that after 17 years with the network, my time was up.
' She said her recent time at the network had been 'miserable' and she was glad to be heading out the door. She ended her post by thanking the many friends she had made throughout her long career with the network. There has been a cost-cutting bloodbath at Seven as the network's news division comes under new management .
