The minister-president of Hanover (German: Ministerpräsident von Hannover) is the leader of the Hanoverian Government and the keeper of the Great Seal of Hanover. The minister-president chairs the Hanoverian Government and is also primarily responsible for the formulation, development, and presentation of Hanoverian Government policy. Additional functions of the minister-president include promoting and representing Hanover in an official capacity, at home and abroad.
The minister-president is nominated by the Hanoverian Parliament by fellow MHPs, and is afterwards formally appointed to the position by the monarch. In turn, members of the Hanoverian Cabinet and junior ministers of the Hanoverian Government, as well as the Hanoverian law officers, are all appointed by the minister-president. As head of the Hanoverian Government, the minister-president is directly accountable to the Hanoverian Parliament for their actions and the actions of the wider government.
Since the office's creation, the position has always been traditionally held by the leader of the Hanoverian Union Party, currently Anna-Lena Ungerer, whom assumed office on 20 November 2021, becoming the most recent in the long, unbroken line of HUP party leaders to successively hold the office, owing to the party's longtime dominant position in Hanoverian politics. Most notably, Ungerer is the second woman in Hanoverian history to hold the office after Karlotta Band, whom was minister-president from 1974 to 1989.
