In 2020, Jeanette became the first black female UK TV presenter ever to host a boxing production on one of the country's five main channels. She was also announced as the host of the weekly hour-long show The Women's Sports Show on BBC Radio London and co-presents alongside Ian Wright on his hugely popular podcast Wrighty’s House.

She also works closely with the IOC and IAAF as a moderator.  Jeanette has worked with the Youth Sport Trust since 2010, working with young people in schools around the country to help them realise the benefits of sport.
