Now - please forgive my ignorance on the subject, but what does the mayor actually do?

Depends, Livingston introduced the Oyster Cards, The New Buses, The "buy a ticket before you get on the Bus" scheme, Congestion Charge, Started Crossrail, and was always good at getting money from Whitehall to fund his projects such as Crossrail and the investment for the Underground/East-End/New Stadium he secured after winning the Olympics.
In other Words, The Major can do quite a lot.
