UKHSA appoint a new Chief Operating Officer and confirm Dyfed Alsop will cover as CEO after Jenny Harries Departure.
Dyfed Alsop has been appointed as UKHSA’s new Chief Operating Officer and Deputy Chief Executive Officer, starting 1 May 2025.
He has already begun working with UKHSA, attending meetings and building relationships across the agency, ahead of his formal start date later in the year.
Dyfed joins UKHSA from the Welsh Revenue Authority (WRA), where he served as Chief Executive since 2017.
He will work alongside UKHSA Chief Executive Jenny Harries and the Executive Committee over the coming months to ensure continuity of leadership and operations ahead of Jenny Harries’ departure in early summer.
As Deputy Chief Executive, Dyfed will cover the CEO role until a new chief executive is appointed.
Dyfed Alsop said:
I’m delighted to be joining UKHSA at such an interesting time in the organisation’s development. I’m looking forward to getting out and about to meet people and learn more about the important work that UKHSA does.
I’m passionate about public service and the potential we have collectively to make a difference. I can’t wait to get started.”
Dyfed has held senior leadership positions across government, including the Valuation Office Agency, HM Treasury and HM Revenue & Customs.
