Salary details for senior staff in departments, agencies and non-departmental public bodies earning £150,000 and above are published annually. The most recent list is online at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/senior-officials-high-earners-salaries.

The Cabinet Office does not hold a central record of when these staff were appointed to their current role.
