A chief administrative officer (or CAO) is a corporate officer, (rather than an executive or director, responsible for administrative management of some aspects of the private, public or governmental corporations. The CAO is one of the highest ranking members of a governmental organization, monitoring the daily operations and often reporting to the chief executive officer directly. In some companies, the CAO is also the president.

In a municipal context, the title is usually used as an alternative for city manager.
