The mayor of Hackney is a directly elected mayor responsible for the executive function of Hackney London Borough Council in London, England. The post was created following a referendum in the London Borough of Hackney on 2 May 2002. The inaugural mayor Jules Pipe was succeeded by Philip Glanville following an election on 15 September 2016. Glanville resigned with effect from 22 September 2023, following a scandal. Fellow Labour Party councillor Caroline Woodley was elected as Mayor in November 2023.

Local authority areas in England typically have an executive leader and a cabinet selected from the local council, similar to how the national prime minister and cabinet are selected from Parliament. In contrast, residents of some areas, or groups of areas known as combined authorities or combined county authorities, directly elect the executive mayors of their local government.
