Office of the Executive Secretariat
FDA’s Office of the Executive Secretariat (OES), within the Office of the Commissioner, integrates critical FDA administrative and communication functions to ensure high-quality information is shared within FDA and with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), other governmental organizations, and the public. OES serves the Commissioner of Food and Drugs (Commissioner) by tracking and managing the large volume of the Commissioner’s correspondence and assignments from HHS; by reviewing, editing, and clearing reports to Congress; by coordinating senior management briefings/meetings; and by performing other tasks (e.g., maintaining and posting the public calendar) that require high-level coordination and input.
