The prime minister of Gassasinia is the head of government of the Kingdom of Gassasinia. Gassasinian prime ministers are responsible for forming the Cabinet, and for leading the privy council which, amongst other duties, appoints members of the House of Peers. Although the prime minister cannot nominate peers, he can veto privy council nominations for the House of Peers. Prime ministers are styled as The Right Honourable, a privilege which remains even after they have left office.

Gassasinian prime ministers are, as a matter of convention, almost always nominated to the House of Peers. However, as peers must be non-partisan, many former prime ministers opt to remain members of the House of Representatives.

The prime minister of Gassasinia is generally appointed by parliamentary vote from the largest party of parliament. Prime ministers in Gassasinia can be recalled by parliament through a motion of no confidence, and can be impeached by the Supreme Court of Gassasinia.

Prime Minister Ahmed al-Rashid is the 10th and current prime minister of Gassasinia. Ahmed al-Rashid took office from Khalil Barakat after taking over leadship of the Liberal Party and winning the 2015 General Election. After the 2019 General Election, the Liberal Party lost its' majority and formed a coalition government with the Labour Party.
