East Sussex County Council is the upper tier local authority for the non-metropolitan county of East Sussex in England.

East Sussex is divided into five local government districts. Three are larger, rural, districts (from west to east: Lewes; Wealden; and Rother). The other two, Eastbourne and Hastings, are mainly urban areas. The rural districts are subdivided into civil parishes.

The County Council has its headquarters at County Hall in Lewes; there are a number of other administrative buildings located throughout the county.
