ESB has named Marguerite Sayers as deputy chief executive, sparking a wider shake-up of its top management.
Ms Sayers replaces Jerry O’Sullivan who is retiring after more than 40 years with the company, ESB said in a statement.
In turn, Pat Fenlon takes over Ms Sayers’s former role as executive director for corporate solutions, while Paul Stapleton has been appointed executive director for group finance and commercial, a position previously held by Mr Fenlon.
“Marguerite, Pat and Paul all bring considerable experience and capability as well as a record of delivery,” said company chief executive Paddy Hayes.
