Brigitte Bierlein (German: [b?i'g?t? 'bi???la??n]; born 25 June 1949) is an Austrian jurist serving as Chancellor of Austria since 2019.
An Independent, she was the advocate general of the Procurator's Office – essentially the country's chief public prosecutor – from 1990 to 2002, as well as a member of the executive board of the International Association of Prosecutors from 2001 to 2003.
In 2003, Bierlein was made a member of the Constitutional Court.
Between January 2018 and June 2019, she served as President of the Constitutional Court, the first woman to hold the position.
Following the Ibiza affair, President Alexander Van der Bellen named Bierlein Chancellor of Austria, after a parliamentary motion of no confidence dismissed the government of Sebastian Kurz, the first successful motion of no confidence in Austrian modern history.
She is the first woman to assume the role and is expected to serve until the next government is sworn in following the legislative election which took place on September 29, 2019.
