Britton joins the energy company on 1 February from her role as strategic marketing director at insurer Axa UK, having previously held the position of head of marketing at Norwich and Peterborough Building Society.

She replaces Kevin Peake, who left Npower in August following 11 years with the brand, as interim brand, sponsorship and corporate responsibility director.

Giuseppe Di Vita, managing director, customer markets at Npower, said: "Debbie joins the industry at a time when it faces many challenges on many different fronts.
