A lever-type connector includes a first connector, a second connector (30), and a lever member (40). The first connector includes a cam pin. The second connector (30) is connected to a cable (33) and is fitted to the first connector. The lever member (40) includes a body and an operating part (50R), where a cam groove into which the cam pin is inserted is formed in the body, and the operating part (50R) is contiguous to the body and is used for performing a rotating operation. The lever member (40) is rotatably attached to the second connector (30) and causes the first connector and the second connector (30) to be fitted together by rotating from an initial position to a final fitting position. The operating part (50R) is configured so that, when the lever member (40) is rotated, a tip (50a) of the operating part (50R) moves through a space (S), which is situated on the cable (33) side with respect to a front face (31A) of the second connector (30) from which the cable (33) is led out.
