Bishop Echevarria served as head of Opus Dei from 1994-2016. He worked closely with St. Josemaria Escriva as his secretary from 1953 until the founder's death in 1975.
The Prelature of Opus Dei is governed by a Prelate, in accord with canon law and its own statutes.

The council for women is called the Central Advisory and the council for men is called the General Council; both are based in Rome.
