The current PBB President is Tan Sri Abang Johari Openg, who is also the Premier of Sarawak. The Deputy Presidents are Datuk Amar Douglas Embas and Datuk Amar Awang Tengah Ali Hasan, who are also deputy premiers.

Whereas, the two senior vice presidents are currently held by Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof and Datuk Seri Stephen Rundi, Sarawak’s Minister of Food Industry, Commodities, and Rural Development.
