The Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of Great Britain and the Commonwealth is the senior rabbi of the United Synagogue, a union of British Orthodox Jewish synagogues.

The Chief Rabbi is considered to be one of the more, if not the most prominent Jewish spiritual leader in the UK. They often represent the larger Jewish community of the UK to the government and the Crown.[1]

Two Chief Rabbis have been knighted and entered the House of Lords, Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, and his predecessor Rabbi Lord Immanuel Jakobvitz.

As of 2013, the chief rabbi is Ephraim Mirvis.[2][3]
