Sreten Žujović (Serbian Cyrillic: Сретен Жујовић) (24 June 1899 - 11 June 1976) was a Serbian veteran of World War I and long-time communist. He was a member of the Central Committee and the Politburo before World War II. He helped organize the Partisan uprising in Serbia in 1941 and became a member of the Supreme Staff. Finance minister in the postwar government, he lost his party membership and high office when he sided with Joseph Stalin against Josip Broz Tito in 1948.

Sreten Žujović was a member of Yugoslav delegation at a United Nations Conference on International Organization. The delegates drew up the 111-article Charter, which was adopted unanimously on 25 June 1945 in the San Francisco Opera House.
