Reform Jersey is a centre-left social-democratic political party in Jersey. In all general elections since 2014, Reform has won the most seats of any party in the States Assembly. However, it has not won a majority of seats in any general election due to the large number of independents in the Assembly.

Reform was initially founded as a pressure group in 2012 to campaign for electoral reform in the run up to the 2013 electoral reform referendum. It first stood candidates for election in the 2014 by-elections, where it won two seats. It officially registered as a political party in July 2014 to compete in the 2014 general election. Reform has gained seats in every subsequent general election, but has never won a majority. It was initially a junior coalition partner in the Le Fondré government, but left the coalition in November 2020 to support a vote of no confidence against it.

In January 2024, Reform returned to government following a vote of no confidence in Kristina Moore as a coalition partner in the Farnham government. As of February 2024, Reform has ten seats in the States Assembly. Sam Mézec has been the leader of Reform Jersey since its foundation.

Reform Jersey identifies very clearly as a centre-left social democratic party with close links to the island's small trade union movement.
