It seems there might be a slight misunderstanding in your premise.
**Andy Burnham is not currently set to become the UK Prime Minister next week.** He is currently the Mayor of Greater Manchester and is not the leader of the Labour Party (or any other major UK political party). There is no general election scheduled for next week that would see him move into Downing Street.
The leader of the Labour Party, and therefore the frontrunner to become Prime Minister should Labour win the next general election (expected in 2024), is **Keir Starmer**.
If **Keir Starmer** were to become Prime Minister, the overwhelming frontrunner to be his Chancellor of the Exchequer would be the current Shadow Chancellor:
* **Rachel Reeves**
She is a prominent figure in the Labour Party, has extensive experience in economic policy, and has been the Shadow Chancellor since 2021, actively setting out Labour’s economic vision.
Currently, the UK Prime Minister is Rishi Sunak, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer is Jeremy Hunt.
