The Grand Unified Micronational between March 2014 and June 2015 included three positions with the title of Secretary amongst its staff.

After the dissolution of the Security Council and Advancement Council in 2013 and 2014 respectively, three secretarial positions were established by Quorum on 13 March 2014. The Secretary for Security and Community Affairs was to continue the work of the Security Council, whereas the Secretary for Culture and Education and the Secretary for Science and Research were to continue the work of the Advancement Council. These three positions were abolished in June 2015 upon the organisation transitioning into a formal discussion group, and were not re-established upon its return to organisation status the following year.

A further now-defunct secretariat was the Secretariat for Conflict Resolution and Intermicronational Law, or SCRIL. This was a project of the Mcarthian delegate which was dissolved mere weeks after that nation's exit from the GUM.
