The Secretary-General to the Presidency (Arabic: الأمين العام لرئاسة الجمهورية, ALA-LC: Al-Amīn al-‘Āmm li-Ri’āsat al-Jumhūriyya), is a senior administrative position within the Syrian government responsible for overseeing the administrative and organizational affairs of the Presidency of the Syrian Arab Republic. It is considered one of the highest-ranking posts in the Syrian state.
During Ba'athist Syria under Bashar al-Assad, it was known as the General Secretariat of the Presidency of the Republic, which aimed to support the President in carrying out his duties and exercising his powers. The position of Secretary-General remained vacant until the fall of the Assad regime in December 2024.
It has been held by Maher al-Sharaa since 5 April 2025, under President Ahmed al-Sharaa.
