Longest-Serving Trump Advisor Dan Scavino Now in Charge of Hiring Decisions as Director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office

August 26, 2025

Dan Scavino, Trump’s longest serving advisor, will now be in charge of hiring and firing of White House Personnel in his new role

 

President Donald Trump has reportedly appointed Dan Scavino, his longest-serving advisor, as the new director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office, as first reported by Axios.  Scavino has been with President Trump since the golden escalator ride in 2015.

The position was previously held by Sergio Gor, whom President Trump has nominated to be the next ambassador to India.

Scavino has been a well-respected advisor to the President Trump, beginning as Director of Social Media for the 2016 campaign.  But before that, he served as an assistant manager and rose to executive vice president at Trump’s National Golf Club Westchester from 2004 through 2015.

From 2017-2021, Scavino was the White House Director of Social Media and Senior Advisor for Digital Strategy from 2019-2021.  In the second administration, Scavino serves as the White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications.

Scavino is reportedly the only non-family member who has been in the Trump administration since its very beginning.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said:

“Dan Scavino is one of President Trump’s most trusted and longest serving advisors.  There is nobody better to ensure the president’s administration is staffed with the most qualified, competent, and America First-driven workers. There is much still to be done and Dan’s leadership will ensure the highest quality, most dedicated workforce ever.”

Regarding Gor and Scavino’s promotions, Politico reported:

Gor endeared himself to the president and his family for adopting a zero tolerance policy toward job-seekers who had been critical of Trump in the past, often scouring their social media posts and occasionally intervening to block hirings. But his aggressive approach also earned him detractors. Notably, former special adviser Elon Musk slammed Gor as “a snake,” accusing him of convincing Trump to pull the nomination of a Musk confidant to serve as the next NASA administrator.

Scavino is one of Trump’s closest advisors, dating back to the first administration, where he served in a variety of different communications roles. In the West Wing, Scavino occupies one of the closest offices to the Oval Office, serving as one of the most influential players in the MAGA movement.
