Becket joined the OFT from private practice, having worked as a solicitor for five years in London and Brussels, for the law firms Baker & McKenzie, Simmons & Simmons, and Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer. He replaces Gisela Davis who leaves to return to DEFRA.
Christiane Kent has been promoted to lead the OFT branch covering consumer goods industries, including food and drink, pharmaceuticals, textiles and domestic electrical goods.
