Recruiting the former Football League manager is a coup for City and just part of a raft of changes happening at the National League South club.
Truro left their Treyew Road base in 2021 to groundshare at Plymouth Parkway and endured a particularly nomadic 2023-24 campaign, but Cornwall's highest ranked club are now set to return home to play in a new 3,000 capacity stadium at Langarth.
In addition, they have updated their club crest and will revert to their original nickname of the Tinners, which reflects the mining heritage of Cornwall, instead of the White Tigers.
It all adds up to a revolution for the Cornish outfit, who lost popular manager Paul Wotton to divisional rivals Torquay United last month, and goes a long way to explain why former Macclesfield Town boss Askey was tempted to head to the south west.
"I know Alex Black (football consultant) and it was something that really interested me," he told The NLP.
"The fact they are moving into a new ground was a big attraction.
"Having a brand new stadium after not having their own ground for a few years means it's exciting times for the club.
"They did well to stay up last year having gone up the previous season and hopefully we can push it on.
"The club have new owners and it's a completely different challenge as I haven't managed in Conference South before, but I'm really looking forward to it."
The 59-year-old is hoping the new stadium will aid the club's progress, similarly to when he helped former club York win promotion to the National League in 2022 shortly after they had moved to the brand new York Community Stadium.
"They were 17th in the league when I went in and we got promoted," he said. "The new ground helped and they started to get bigger crowds.
"Hopefully that will be the case with Truro and the whole of Cornwall gets behind the club.
