Gov.-elect Charlie Baker has tapped banker Ronald L. Walker as the state's next secretary of labor, adding the first African-American to his Cabinet.
Walker, 53, the co-founder and president of Next Street Financial, a merchant bank aimed at inner-city businesses, comes from a long career in banking, where he previously served as vice president at Sovereign Bank and worked at Fleet Financial Group, according to his Next Street bio.
Walker is the first minority tapped to helm a secretariat under the Republican, and adds to a growing list of Democrats that includes Jay Ash, the incoming housing secretary; chief of staff Steven Kadish; and chief secretary Carlo Basile, an East Boston state representative.
Walker also serves as board chairman for The Base, an urban baseball program whose founder, Robert Lewis Jr., campaigned heavily for Baker and is serving on the new administration's transition team.
"Ron's experience will serve him well as he takes on the job of connecting our administration's job training and workforce development services with employers ensuring they expand and grow here," Baker said in a statement.
Walker said in a statement that he shares the "governor-elect's emphasis on connecting education to work, (and) his commitment to workforce development."
