Jeremy Hunt served as Chancellor of the Exchequer of the United Kingdom from his appointment on 14 October 2022 to his resignation on 5 July 2024, during the premierships of Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak.
Hunt was appointed Chancellor of the Exchequer by Truss on 14 October 2022, following the dismissal of Kwasi Kwarteng, and retained the post in Rishi Sunak's ministry following Truss's resignation. During his time in the position, Hunt presented two budgets in 2023 and 2024 and two autumn statements in 2022 and 2023.
After the Conservatives lost the election in a landslide to the opposition Labour Party led by Keir Starmer, Hunt was succeeded as chancellor by Rachel Reeves.
