The Minister President of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, anglicized Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania (German: Ministerpräsidentin des Landes Mecklenburg-Vorpommern), is the head of government of the German state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The position was created in 1990 after German reunification. The former districts Rostock, Schwerin, Neubrandenburg and the northern part of Potsdam were merged into the new federal state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and the borders was redrawn.

The current and first female Minister-President is Manuela Schwesig, heading a coalition government between the Social Democrats and the CDU. Schwesig succeeded Erwin Sellering in July 2017.

The office of the Minister-President is known as the State Chancellery (German: Staatskanzlei), and is located in the capital of Schwerin, along with the rest of the cabinet departments.
