Jennifer "Jennie" Formby (' Sandle'''; born 12 April 1960) is a British trade unionist and political figure who served as General Secretary of the Labour Party from 2018 to 2020.
She was previously political director and south-east England regional secretary for Unite the Union.

She went to Bath High School for Girls then St Helen and St Katharine boarding school in Abingdon, paid for by the Royal Navy from the age of 14.
Formby left school with 10 O levels and 3 A levels, but chose not to go to university.
Formby became a trade unionist when she began her working life in Salisbury at the bookmakers William Hill in the late 1970s, and became a branch secretary in Unite's predecessor, the Transport and General Workers' Union.
She later worked for BOC in Southampton, where she became a union shop steward.
Formby became a Transport and General Workers' Union regional officer in 1988.
She married Freddie Formby in 2000 and the couple had two children together and adopted a third.

In February 2018, Formby announced she was a candidate to become General Secretary of the Labour Party, shortly after the incumbent, Iain McNicol, resigned.
