Kristina Moore has announced her her full preferred slate for the Council of Ministers, which includes a host of new faces.
The full list of the Chief Minister-designate's preferred ministerial candidates is:
Treasury and Resources: Deputy Ian Gorst
Children and Education: Deputy Inna Gardiner
Economic Development, Tourism, Sport, and Culture: Deputy Kirsten Morel
Environment: Deputy Jonathon Renouf
External Relations and Financial Services: Deputy Philip Ozouf
Health and Social Services: Deputy Karen Wilson
Home Affairs: Deputy Helen Miles
Housing and Communities: Deputy David Warr
Infrastructure: Deputy Tom Binet
International Development: Deputy Carolyn Labey
Social Security: Deputy Elaine Millar
Announcing her preferred list on Twitter, Deputy Moore said: "Many people are wanting to know who is on my ministerial "slate" this is the list of talented people that I sent to the Greffe yesterday. I hope the States Assembly will approve these appointments next week. Together we will deliver for Jersey."
Just three of the candidates are returning members of the previous Council of Ministers, Deputies Gorst and Labey, while Deputy Morel was a former Assistant Minister. Former Treasury Minister Deputy Ozouf, who returned to politics after leaving in 2018, is also making a return to the front bench.
If all of Deputy Moore's preferred ministerial candidates were to be elected, this would be the first gender-balanced Council of Ministers seen in Jersey.
The list notably does not include a single member of Reform Jersey, the political party which is headed by rival Chief Minister nominee Deputy Sam Mézec.

Former Deputy Chief Minister Lyndon Farnham is not included, nor is Jersey Liberal Conservatives leader Philip Bailhache, a former Bailiff and External Relations Minister, who had previously hoped to become Chief Minister himself.
Deputy Moore beat Deputy Mézec to become Jersey's first female Chief Minister-designate, with 39 votes in her favour.
She secured the leading political role yesterday after an hour-long grilling by States Members during which she outlined her 100-day plan.
As her victory was announced, Deputy Moore commented: "May I thank everybody for their support and their encouragement.
"I also thank Deputy Mézec for expressing his views and putting forward a strong argument to the Assembly and I look forward to working with Reform and each and every other member of the Assembly on uniting the community."
She added: "It’s time to get Jersey back on track."
Although Deputy Moore has now revealed her preferred candidates, other States Members can also make nominations for each ministerial position, so it is possible for the Assembly to choose ministers that the Chief Minister did not want.
The votes for ministers will take place on Monday 11 and Tuesday 12 July, forming the Council of Ministers.
At this point, the Chief Minister officially takes up the position and chooses one minister to be Deputy Chief Minister.
From Tuesday 19 to Thursday 21 July, the States Assembly will then put forward members for Scrutiny Panels and Committees.
