The Archdeacon of Man is a senior cleric second only to the Bishop of Sodor and Man in the Anglican Diocese of Sodor and Man.

According to advice given by Queen Elizabeth II, Lord of Mann, the Archdeacon "is the bishop's second in command", and this seniority is reflected, e.g., on Tynwald Day in the Order of the Procession, and by the fact that until 1919 the Archdeacon of Man was an ex officio member of the Legislative Council.
