Ros Jones has been Mayor of Doncaster since 2013, having been re-elected for a historic fourth term in May 2025.

The role of Elected Mayor

Doncaster Council is led by an Elected Mayor and Cabinet.

The Mayor

  • Is the council’s political leader and is directly elected by Doncaster constituents to serve a four-year term of office.

Mayoral priorities

 

I will be bringing forward a refreshed borough strategy to be launched in early 2026, but my priorities for this Mayoral term remain and are as follows:

 

  • Reopening Doncaster Sheffield Airport, the single biggest investment in Doncaster for a generation, bringing freight and passenger flights back to Doncaster.

 

  • Delivering jobs, growth, opportunity and prosperity for Doncaster residents and businesses.

 

  • Working with Government to rebuild our public services, repair our roads and bring about the positive change that people expect and deserve.

 

  • Neighbourhood renewal and regenerating our town and city centre high streets, with investment planned for Askern, Bentley, Conisbrough, Mexborough, Moorends, Stainforth and our city centre including Doncaster Markets.

 

  • And, ensuring we continue to support and protect our residents, through high quality and value for money council services.
