Transparency in Governance: Office of the President Releases 2025 Staffing Report

The Office of the President has officially published its annual report detailing the staffing positions at Jubilee House and its auxiliary offices for the 2025 calendar year.

This disclosure fulfills the requirements of Section 11 of the Presidential Office Act, 1993 (Act 463), offering citizens a clear window into the human resources supporting the executive branch.

As of December 31, 2025, the total staff strength at the Presidency reached 808 employees. This workforce functions as a mix of political appointees, dedicated civil servants, and various public sector professionals attached to help the government machinery run efficiently.

The data provides a comprehensive look at how these roles are distributed. The staff framework consists of 233 political appointees and 575 civil and public service workers, ensuring that both policy direction and essential administrative support are covered.

Consider these key factual insights regarding the composition and distribution of the 808 personnel currently serving the Office of the President:

• The political leadership tier includes four Ministers of State at the Presidency, alongside 39 core political staffers and 190 other technical and support appointees.
• The Civil Service framework is the largest internal component, employing 390 individuals across specialized classes ranging from procurement and internal audit to administrative roles.
• A significant portion of the workforce, totaling 234 employees, is dedicated to household and estate management, maintaining facilities like the State House and various residences.
• Inter-agency collaboration remains vital, as 185 professionals from external institutions like the Ghana Health Service and the Department of Parks and Gardens are attached to the Presidency.
• The Jubilee House Medical Centre remains fully staffed by 48 professionals from the Ghana Health Service, providing essential care to both the presidential staff and the general public.

The reporting structure categorizes staff into three primary buckets to show the breadth of operations. While political appointees set the administration’s agenda, the massive team of civil and public service workers keeps the day-to-day operations moving forward.

From dispatch riders and caterers to architects and accountants, the report reveals the diverse range of skills required to maintain the seat of government. It also highlights how the Presidency integrates staff from various departments to ensure consistency across the civil service.

Publishing this data serves as a standard exercise in administrative transparency. By providing this breakdown, the government allows the public to better understand the scale and reach of the executive office’s operational capacity.
