Spokesperson

A spokesperson (spokesman or spokeswoman), or spokesmodel is a person who speaks on behalf of others, but is understood not to be necessarily part of the others (e.g. hired to represent the others).

Spokesperson is a typical example of a non-sexist neologism that was invented to replace the conventional spokesman.
