The Mayor of the Liverpool City Region (also styled as Metro Mayor; legally the Mayor of the Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, St Helens, Sefton and Wirral Combined Authority), is a combined authority mayor, who chairs the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority.[2] The first, and current, officeholder is Steve Rotheram, who was elected to the post in May 2017.[3]

The office was created under the Cities and Local Government Devolution Act 2016 which allowed for the creation of 'mayors' to lead combined authorities in England.[4]
