From a background in magazine journalism in the UK, she started out in the film industry at The British Film Institute Production Board working for three years as Production Co-ordinator. In 1972 Scott began her association with Australian film-making with Bruce Beresford on ''The Adventures of Barry McKenzie'', setting up the production in London and completing the film in Australia. Jane returned to Australia in 1973 for Reg Grundy Enterprises to work on a number of productions and again in 1974/5 as Associate Producer on ''Barry Mckenzie Holds His Own''. Over more than thirty years in the film industry Scott has worked on a large number of feature films, television productions and television commercials throughout the world. Titles of some of the films she has been involved with include ''My Brilliant Career'', ''Crocodile Dundee'', ''Crocodile Dundee II'', and ''Strictly Ballroom''. ''Shine'', which Scott produced in 1996, received world-wide acclaim and a large number of local and international awards and nominations including nine AFI Awards and seven nominations at the 1996 Academy Awards with Geoffrey Rush winning the Best Actor Oscar. As well as being nominated herself for an Academy Award, a Golden Globe and a BAFTA as the producer of ''Shine'', Scott was also nominated for the Darryl F.
