The Hertfordshire Police and Crime Commissioner is the police and crime commissioner, an elected official tasked with setting out the way crime is tackled by Hertfordshire Police in the English County of Hertfordshire. The post was created in November 2012, following an election held on 15 November 2012, and replaced the Hertfordshire Police Authority.

The Commissioner's role is to hold the police and the chief constable to account on behalf of the public, and to set the strategic direction of the force through the Police Crime Plan. The office is based at Harpenden Police Station.[2]

The current incumbent is Jonathan Ash-Edwards, who represents the Conservative Party. He was elected in 2024, and was the second person to hold the role. Previously, it was held by David Lloyd. Lloyd was first elected in 2012 and re-elected to the role at subsequent elections,[3] until in 2024 it was announced Lloyd would not re-contest the role.[4]
