The short answer is no one.

At the very end of WW2, Hitler and his closest advisors were gathered in an underground bunker in Berlin. The Red Army was attacking the city from all sides. Hitler decided that he could not be captured, so he committed suicide.

The reality was that there was nothing to "take over": the Third Reich was smashed and defeated. There was no further Dictator after Hitler killed himself.

Hitler named navy commander Admiral Karl Dönitz to succeed him as President, but not as Chancellor (prime minister), the other office he had combined in his post of Führer (Leader).

With Germany's surrender a week later, Dönitz's government became purely nominal. On May 23 it was dissolved and its members arrested by the Allies.
