The shadow ministry of John Pesutto was the shadow cabinet of Victoria from 8 December 2022 to 27 December 2024, serving in opposition to the government led by Daniel Andrews and Jacinta Allan of the Australian Labor Party. The shadow ministry was the Opposition's alternative to the Third Andrews ministry and Allan Ministry.
The shadow ministry was appointed by John Pesutto following his election as Leader of the Liberal Party and Leader of the Opposition on 8 December 2022, replacing Guy's shadow cabinet.
The first arrangement of the shadow cabinet was announced on 18 December 2022, and Ryan Smith and previous party leader Matthew Guy were not included. The second iteration of the shadow cabinet was announced on 2 October 2023 in light of Jacinta Allan's new ministry following Daniel Andrews' resignation.
The shadow cabinet was dissolved following the 2024 Victorian Liberal Party leadership spill where Pesutto's leadership was vacated and the subsequent election of Brad Battin as the new leader of the Victorian Liberal Party, after which Battin set up his own shadow cabinet.
