The Prime Minister of Andorra is the main leader of the government in Andorra. Their official title in Catalan is Cap de Govern del Principat d'Andorra. The General Council, which is like Andorra's parliament, chooses the Prime Minister. This important job started in 1982. Before that, the government worked differently. New rules were made to separate the power of making laws from the power of carrying them out. Òscar Ribas Reig was the first Prime Minister, starting on January 4, 1982. The person holding this job right now is Xavier Espot Zamora. He has been Prime Minister since May 16, 2019.
