The results of the election are in but Queenslanders will have to wait a few more days to find out exactly who's in cabinet and who will lead the opposition.
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk on Saturday revealed that Curtis Pitt won't stay on as treasurer, with the senior Labor MP instead being nominated as the parliament's next Speaker.
"The parliament needs a person of integrity and experience as its Speaker and I know Curtis will bring his well-known diligence, fairness, and attention to detail to the role," Ms Palaszczuk said in a statement.
The dumped Mr Pitt put on a brave face, claiming he was honoured to be nominated for a position last held by a member from Far North Queensland a century ago.
"I have always been willing to serve Queenslanders in any capacity, both in government and opposition," he said in a statement.

"I'm proud of my contribution as a member of the executive and I'm keen to make my mark in the parliamentary sphere as well."
It had been widely speculated that Mr Pitt would be shunted from the treasury portfolio in favour of another senior minister, likely Deputy Premier Jackie Trad. There are also reports of a major reshuffle.
Yvette D'Ath, Grace Grace and Steven Miles will be promoted for strong performances in the government's first term, with Ms Palaszczuk's new cabinet to be sworn in at Government House on Tuesday.
The premier reclaimed government on Friday after Liberal National Party leader Tim Nicholls phoned her to concede defeat, two weeks after the November 25 election.
The returned premier said she was "humbled" by the trust that had been placed in her by Queenslanders.
Labor won 48 electorates and holds a majority of two in the 93-seat unicameral parliament.
Meanwhile, the LNP will elect its new leader on Tuesday.
Deputy LNP leader Deb Frecklington, whose seat lies in the traditional National Party heartland, has put herself forward for the job with Tim Mander to serve as her deputy.
Ms Frecklington will face off against former LNP leader John-Paul Langbroek, the man the party executive effectively rolled in 2011 to make way for Campbell Newman.
