Mr Givan said: "There is a huge responsibility that comes with this position, particularly in serving the people of Northern Ireland."
Outgoing First Minister Mrs Foster previously indicated that she will stand down when Mr Poots names a new ministerial team.
But Mr Poots said Mrs Foster will remain as First Minister to lead a British-Irish Council meeting in her home constituency of Fermanagh on Friday.
