The Lord High Treasurer of Great Nortend is fourth highest ranking Officer of State in Great Nortend, ranking below the Lord High Chamberlain and above the Lord High Admiral. He serves as the official head of His Majesty's Treasury and Exchequer, and holds the informal title of Prime Minister of Great Nortend as the de facto head of His Majesty's Government primer inter pares. The Prime Minister serves as the senior-most Minister of the Crown in Government and generally determines the official Government policy of the day.

As the informal position of Prime Minister is ex officio held by the Lord High Treasurer, the Prime Minister is invariably drawn from the temporal peers of the House of Lords; however, there have been on a rare number of occasions when MPs from the Houses of Commons have been elevated to the peerage in order to serve as Prime Minister.

The 8th Duke of Limmes, Andrew Henry Kimperling Alton-Hault, has held the position of Lord High Treasurer and Prime Minister since the beginning of the civil year in 2009, after the Company of Scodeliers took the majority of seats in the Houses of Commons from the Droughers' Party.
