The Temenggong of Johor was one of the members of the Orang Kaya Council established by Sultan Abdul Jalil Shah of the Johor Sultanate.
The first Temenggong appointed was Temenggong Abdul Jamal in 1757.
The Temenggong of Johor was given the task of controlling the security of the sultan, safeguarding the state and exercising control over the territories of the Johor Sultanate.
The Temenggong of Johor was granted territorial control by the Sultan of Johor and Singapura (later Singapore) as the representative of the Sultan of Johor-Riau, just as the Bendahara was given control of Pahang, the Yang di-Pertuan Muda of Riau was given Riau, and the Temenggong of Muar was given control of Muar.
The descendants of the House of Temenggong would later found the new sultanate on mainland Johor with the first sultan of modern Johor being Abu Bakar.
