A trustee cannot delegate his office or any of his duties either to a co-trustee or to a stranger, unless (a) the instrument of trust so provides, or (b) the delegation is in the regular course of business, or (c) the delegation is necessary, or (d) the beneficiary, being competent to contract, consents to the
A trust is a legal arrangement through which one person, called a "settlor" or "grantor," gives assets to another person (or an institution, such as a bank or law firm), called a "trustee." The trustee holds legal title to the assets for another person, called a "beneficiary." The rights of a trust beneficiary depend
A fiduciary cannot delegate his authority to someone else. He cannot give a Power of Attorney to anyone to perform the jobs that he is required to do. Thus, if a closing for the sale of real estate is to occur, the fiduciary is the only person with the authority to sign the deed and other transfer papers.

A Trustee is considered the legal owner of all Trust assets. And as the legal owner, the Trustee has the right to manage the Trust assets unilaterally, without direction or input from the beneficiaries.
In contrast to collective delegation, an individual trustee may delegate 'the execution and exercise of all the trusts, powers and discretions' vested in him as trustee by statute or by the trust instrument, under s25 Trustee Act 1925 (TA 1925), except for the power of delegation under s25 itself.

Generally speaking, a Trustee (who is not also the Grantor) cannot appoint a Power of Attorney to take over the Trustee's duties or responsibilities, unless this is something that is directly permitted by the Trust Deed or a court order.
To have the trustee appoint an authorized signer runs counter of the trustee's fiduciary duty in regards to the trust and would allow someone not considered suitable by the Grantor when they created the trust to have access to and control over the trust assets.
