Jeremy B. Bash (born August 13, 1971) is an American lawyer who served as chief of staff at the Central Intelligence Agency (2009–2011) and the U.S. Department of Defense (2011–2013) under President Barack Obama, in both roles as a senior advisor to Leon Panetta.

Since 2013, Bash has been a managing director at Beacon Global Strategies, which he co-founded, and serves as a national security analyst for NBC News and MSNBC.

In October 2020, he was among 51 former intelligence officials who signed a letter stating that reporting on Hunter Biden's laptop had "all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation." From 2022 to 2025, he was a member of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board. In January 2025, President Donald Trump revoked his security clearance.
