A staffer from a pro-coal lobby group who has pledged to increase political representation for women, is set to take the reins at the NSW Young Liberal Party.

Harry Stutchbury, who works with the NSW Minerals Council, is set to take over leadership of NSW Young Liberals on Saturday in a deal agreed between the moderate and soft-right factions of the group.

Harry Stutchbury is due to take over the presidency of the NSW Young Liberals on Saturday.

The 25-year-old will take over just as the party heads into preselections during the next six months for state and federal MPs.

The Young Liberals represent only a fraction of the Liberal Party membership, but are considered one of the most active groupings, with some seeing them as among the most powerful forces in the NSW party.
