Groysman, the mayor of Ukraine, was the vice president of the Association of Ukrainian Cities.
Groysman graduated from the National Academy of State Administration in February 2010 with a specialization in Community Development Management, mainly on the local and regional levels.
Groysman was simultaneously elected Vice Prime Minister for Regional Policy and Minister of Regional Planning, Construction, and Communal Services of Ukraine in the First Yatsenyuk Government on February 27, 2014. Groysman was named chair of the Ukrainian Special Government Commission on MH17, which was investigating the downfall and death of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 ("MH17") during the war in Donbass.
On July 24, 2014, the legislative coalition that was behind this government collapsed, and on the same day, Prime Minister Arsenyuk declared that he would immediately resign from his office. However, Yatsenyuk's resignation was not approved by parliament. Nevertheless, the Yatsenyuk Government named Groysman as its acting Prime Minister on July 25, 2014. The Verkhovna Rada, on the other hand, rejected Yatsenyuk's resignation on July 31 because just 16 of the 450 members voted for his resignation.
Groysman was elected into parliament in 2014 after being on the top ten of the Petro Poroshenko Bloc's electoral list.
Groysman was elected as the Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada on November 27, 2014, during the first session of newly elected parliament. His nomination was supported by 359 (out of the 423 deputies). He was also the only candidate for the position.
Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk declared on April 10 that he planned to resign due to public dissatisfaction and suspicions of misconduct surrounding his administration. Following several days of parliamentary debate, Groysman was voted by MPs 257-to-48 as Ukraine's 16th Prime Minister, following a lengthy debate on April 14th. Groysman is Ukraine's youngest prime minister (age 38 at the time of the election).
Groysman's appointment as Prime Minister sparked a constitutional need for a new cabinet, in which new appointments were already underway due to resignations in protest over Ukraine's corruption and reform problems. Some of the posts in the new Groysman government were sent to people who were deemed Poroshenko allies.
Groysman said in 2016 that he would combat graft and strengthen closer links with the European Union, which has expressed concern for widespread and persistent corruption in Ukraine's government and economy.
On April 23, 2019, a Groysman left the Petro Poroshenko Bloc "Solidarity" on the radio. Volodymyr Zelensky, who defeated incumbent Poroshenko in the 2019 Ukrainian presidential election, was declared President of Ukraine and Groysman announced that he would resign as Ukraine's Prime Minister.
Groysman declared on May 24th that he would run in the 2019 Ukrainian parliamentary election with the party's Ukrainian Strategy. (This group was established in 2015 as the local party Vinnytsia European Strategy, not the national party.) The Ukrainian parliament voted against Groysman's resignation as Prime Minister of Ukraine on May 30 and confirmed that he will remain Prime Minister until at least the parliamentary election in July 2019. During the 2014 election, Ukrainian Strategy was unable to gain any parliamentary seats, total votes fell by 2.4 percent, despite the fact that the election had a 5% threshold. Also, the party failed to win a constituency seat.
When Oleksiy Honcharuk was elected Prime Minister of Ukraine on August 29, 2019, Groysman's prime minister resigned.
