The Escambia County Board of County Commissioners (also called the Escambia County Commission) is the main governing body of Escambia County, Florida, and is made up of five commissioners — one for each of the county's five districts. Commissioners are chosen in partisan elections for four-year terms. There are currently no term limits.

In 2002, four of the five County Commissioners were removed from office by Governor Jeb Bush in the soccer complex corruption scandal.
