Appointed representative (5)

I believe the answer is:

proxy

(Other definitions for proxy that I've seen before include "One voting on behalf of another" , "Delegated vote" , "Person voting on behalf of another" , "Authorised representative" , "Authority to represent others" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
