}}The secretary of the Chongqing Municipal Committee of the Chinese Communist Party is the leader of the Chongqing Municipal Committee of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). As the CCP is the sole ruling party of the People's Republic of China (PRC), the secretary is the highest ranking post in Chongqing.

The secretary is officially appointed by the CCP Central Committee based on the recommendation of the CCP Organization Department, which is then approved by the Politburo and its Standing Committee. The secretary can be also appointed by a plenary meeting of the Chongqing Municipal Committee, but the candidate must be the same as the one approved by the central government. The secretary leads the Standing Committee of the Chongqing Municipal Committee, and since at least 2007, the secretary has consistently been a member of the CCP Politburo.{{Cite web |title=Decoding Chinese Politics: Party Center |url=https://asiasociety.org/policy-institute/decoding-chinese-politics?policy=party-center&group=organizations&size=rank&connection=personal |access-date=11 October 2024 |website=Asia Society}} The secretary leads the work of the Municipal Committee and its Standing Committee.
