Britain's MI6 spy agency gets its first female chief
The Daily Guardian
|June 17, 2025
Britain's real-life spies have finally caught up with James Bond. MI6 has appointed its first female chief.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced Sunday that Blaise Metreweli will be the next head of the U.K.'s foreign intelligence agency, and the first woman to hold the post since its founding in 1909. She is currently the MI6 director of technology and innovation — the real-world equivalent of Bond gadget-master Q.
A career intelligence officer, Metreweli, 47, steps from the shadows into the light as the only MI6 employee whose name is made public. She said "I am proud and honored to be asked to lead my Service."
