Formerly a pharmacist, graduating with a Bachelor of Pharmacy from the University of Sydney in 1984, Jansz instead turned to things epicureal and opened a restaurant in Picton, New South Wales. Although working with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation in 1992, Jansz's first notable television role came in 1992 as a presenter on the Nine Network's "What's Cooking", which he hosted from 1993 until its conclusion in 1999. In 1995 he débuted on the "Burke's Backyard", in which he made a guest appearance, then presented a regular weekly segment until its end in 2004. He currently presents the daytime cooking programme "Fresh with the Australian Women's Weekly".

Jansz was a regular contributor to the "Australian Gourmet Traveller" between 1987 and 1992 and has written three books: "Taking The Freshest Approach", "Favourite Recipes" and "Geoff Jansz Desserts".
