Have you ever considered being a deputy?
“A representative in a legislative body in certain countries. ” 1
This term is used in France (according to TFD):
“a member of the legislative assembly (or of the lower chamber of the legislature in various countries, such as France)” 1
The exact role you would give as a deputy (in your context) is up to you (or his elect/the cabinet secretary) with a full portfolio, of other countries (or his peers) will vary according to your opinion. I think it might be good because it does not have the connotation of a member of the cabinet (no specific portfolio) or that of a minister (special portfolio).
How do you mean deputy member of cabinet or deputy MC? A person is responsible for his/her role or life, but only for their part. The exact definition is up to the person.
