Secretary of the League of Communists of Vojvodina

The Secretary of the Provincial Committee of the League of Communists of Vojvodina (Serbo-Croatian: Sekretar Pokrajinskog komiteta Saveza komunista Vojvodine) was the head of the League of Communists of Vojvodina, heading the Provincial Committee of the Party. The holder of the office was, for a significant period, the de facto most influential politician in the Socialist Autonomous Province of Vojvodina, an autonomous province of Serbia within Yugoslavia. The official name of the office was changed in April 1982 from "Secretary of the Provincial Committee" to President of the Presidency of the Provincial Committee of the League of Communists of Vojvodina (Predsednik Predsedništva Pokrajinskog komiteta Saveza komunista Vojvodine).

The League of Communists of Vojvodina was also an organization subordinate to the federal-level League of Communists of Yugoslavia and the republic-level League of Communists of Serbia. Between 1943 and September 1952, the former was named the Communist Party of Vojvodina (being part of the larger Communist Party of Yugoslavia), until both parties were renamed "League of Communists" in 1952.
