Shrub ID please

What is this shrub, please? It's been crowded by a very large holly tree which we have removed and I'm wondering about remedial pruning to try and straighten it up as it's rather lopsided. Will it take it? Thank you!

    Hi looks like grissilina evergreen can be trimmed back hard

    It is Griselinia littoralis.
    It can take quite a bit of heavy pruning.
    I take out all the branches I don't want and generally shape it.
    Mine grows rapidly from shoots at the base and up the stems.
