Serhij Wolodymyrowytsch Lyowotschkin ( Ukrainian Сергій Володимирович Льовочкін ; born July 17, 1972 in Kiev ) is a Ukrainian economist and politician. From February 2010 to January 2014 he was the head of the Presidential Administration of Ukraine .

Lyovochkin studied economics at the Taras Shevchenko University in Kiev . He received his doctorate and later obtained a Master of International Law from the Ukrainian Academy of Foreign Trade .

After initially working in finance, he became a scientific advisor to then- President Leonid Kuchma in 1999 . Until the end of Kuchma's tenure, in early 2005, Lyovochkin remained his personal assistant and advisor. At that time he was also represented on the supervisory boards of state banks and was temporarily at the head of the supervisory board of the state telephone company Ukrtelecom .

After the presidential elections in Ukraine in 2004 , Lyovochkin initially became an advisor to the then President of the Ukrainian Parliament, Volodymyr Lytvyn . In September 2006, the then newly appointed Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych appointed him President of the Administration of the Prime Minister's Office. After Lyovochkin had tried unsuccessfully for a mandate in the Verkhovna Rada in 2006, he succeeded in entering parliament on the list of the Party of Regions in the 2007 elections .

In February 2010, the newly elected Ukrainian President Yanukovych appointed him head of the presidential administration. Lyovochkin was at times considered one of Yanukovych's closest confidants and one of the most influential men in Ukrainian politics. He is said to have very good contacts to Dmytro Firtasch , an influential entrepreneur and co-owner of the gas distributor RosUkrEnergo . Lyovochkin resigned from the post of head of the presidential administration in January 2014.
