Nick Joyce is the acting Director General, Rail Group, at the DfT
Previous incumbent Bernadette Kelly took on the role of DfT Permanent Secretary on the 18th of April.
Joyce became acting DG Rail on the 25th April, and was previously DfT's Corporate Finance Director.
Fans of the West Coast Franchise fiasco will remember Joyce as a safe pair of hands, after the event.
Presumably this dreadful photograph of Nick, from the equally dreadful gov.uk website, was taken at that time? (Why do DfT insist on publishing awful photos of officials on their own website? Ed)
It will be interesting to see how quickly this key role is filled with a permanent appointment.
