Michael Shanks
Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero)
To ensure Great British Energy can begin delivering quickly once the parliamentary process has been completed, the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) has taken steps to assign resource including the appointment of Juergen Maier to the role of start-up chair for Great British Energy, Dan McGrail as interim CEO, and five start-up non-executive directors. Additional DESNZ resource has been assigned to Great British Energy, focusing on a small number of essential roles.
Once Great British Energy is formally established by the Bill, work will begin to fully resource Great British Energy.
DESNZ senior and junior roles are published every quarter on data.gov.uk, including those assigned to GBE. The most recent publication was 28 April 2025.
