Ann-Marie Hermans is an Australian politician affiliated with the Liberal Party and is a member of the Victorian Legislative Council, representing the South Eastern Metropolitan Region since November 2022. Upon her election to the Legislative Council, she was appointed as the Shadow Minister for Emergency Services and Shadow Minister for WorkCover and the TAC within the Pesutto shadow cabinet.[1] Before joining the Liberals, she ran for Family First at the 2006 Victorian state election.

Hermans was a school teacher prior to entering politics.[2]

Hermans is considered part of the ‘religious right’ faction of the Victorian Liberals.[3] Notably, in 2023, she voted against the successful motion that sought to expel fellow conservative Liberal Moira Deeming from the parliamentary party.[4]
