Shaw was previously general manager for Red Bull Spain and Portugal. He has also held the role of sales director for Red Bull UK.
"Nigel has been successful in building the Red Bull brand in the UK in his four-and-a-half years as managing director and the overall performance of the business has improved substantially under his leadership," a spokesperson for Red Bull said.
