The head of Lancashire's business growth hub, Boost, is to take over the day-to-day running of the Lancashire Enterprise Partnership.
LEP chair Debbie Francis said:"Andy is a well-known and well-respected figure in Lancashire's business community and he's the perfect person to take on the role of managing the LEP in this transitionary period.
"A thriving and dynamic private sector lies at the heart of Lancashire's devolution ambitions. The LEP's role will be vital as we secure a County Deal for Lancashire so we want to ensure the LEP is fully embedded into the emerging structures. "It makes sense that during this period the LEP's management arrangements are brought under the supervision of Lancashire County Council."
Andy Walker said:"Economic growth is the key to ensuring the success of our emerging County Deal. The LEP has such an important part to play in this so I am thrilled to be taking this responsibility on at such an exciting time for Lancashire."
