The Chief of Staff of the Romaian Army (Αρχηγός Γενικού Επιτελειού Στρατού, ΑΓΕΣ) is the military head of the Romaian Army. The chief directs the army staff and acts as the principal advisor to the Chief of the Defence Staff on subjects concerning the Army. As such, they ensure the operational preparedness of their service branch, express their need for military and civilian personnel, and are responsible for maintaining the discipline, morale and conduct of their troops. Special responsibilities can be assigned to them in relation to nuclear safety.

The chief does not have a fixed term, nor an attached rank. In practice, however, a term has never exceeded five years and all chiefs since the late 1950s have been three–stars generals (OF–08).

Colonel general Iraklis Kastamonitis is the current chief and has been serving since 9 September 2022.
