This is a list of people who have served as Lord-LieutenantofRutland.

In 1974 Rutland became part of Leicestershire under the Local Government Act 1972, the Lieutenancy was abolished, with Rutland's Lord-Lieutenant becoming Lord-Lieutenant of Leicestershire.

When Rutland was restored as a unitary authority in 1997, so was its Lord Lieutenant.

The Lord-Lieutenant is supported in their duties by their Lord-Lieutenant's Cadets, chosen from local cadet units.

Since 1690, all lord-lieutenants have also been Custos Rotulorum of Rutland.
