Medan, the capital of North Sumatra province, has a leadership structure that begins with the mayor. In 1918, the position of assistant resident, who previously led the Medan government, was finally changed to mayor. The first mayor was Daniël Mackay, of Dutch descent. Initially, a mayor could also serve as chairman of the city council, assisted by an assistant mayor elected by popular vote.
The following is a definitive list of Mayors of Medan since 1918 during the Dutch East Indies era until now under the Government of the Republic of Indonesia.
