The Bureau of Naval Personnel (BUPERS) in the United States Department of the Navy is similar to the human resources department of a corporation. The bureau provides administrative leadership and policy planning for the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations (OPNAV) and the U.S. Navy at large. BUPERS is led by the Chief of Naval Personnel, who serves in an additional duty capacity as the deputy chief of naval operations for personnel, manpower, and training (DCNO, N1).

As of 2024, the Bureau of Naval Personnel serves as a parent command to Navy Personnel Command (NPC). Most BUPERS offices are located in Millington, Tennessee, with a small BUPERS staff directly supporting the CNP in Arlington County, Virginia.
