John Rogers, chairman of Breckland Council, has filled the vacancy left by Christopher Walls who resigned after failing to attend a meeting for six months.
The position adds to Mr Rogers's current roles as a Breckland councillor, a Carbrooke parish councillor, and a Watton ward member on Norfolk County Council.
He said: 'I am politically involved in the area and I hope that I can be of help to Watton town and its residents.'
