Hendrik (Henk) ten Hoeve (Heerenveen, 15 September 1946) is a Dutch politician. Since 10 June 2003 he has led the Independent Senate Group (OSF) in the Eerste Kamer of the Staten-Generaal.

Ten Hoeve is the leader of the "Centrale Directie" of the Dockingacollege school in Dokkum, having been one of its economics teachers and then its "conrector" (deputy head). From 1976 to 1980 Ten Hoeve was chairman of the Frisian National Party and from 1980 to 1988 leader of the Provinciale Staten of Friesland.

In 2003, in the elections for the Eerste Kamer, he won only one vote more than the party leader Fons Zinken. Thus Ten Hoeve was placed as number two on the voted preference-list. In 2007, he was re-elected.
