Marguerite Jones Harbert (born 1924) is an American billionaire from the U.S. state of Alabama, with an estimated net worth of $1.7 billion as of 2007. She inherited her wealth from her husband the construction magnate and founder of Harbert Corporation, John M. Harbert, who died in 1995.

Their son Raymond J. Harbert manages the money, and he started his own company Harbert Management Corporation in 1995. This investment management company has grown into a wildly successful firm with over $16 billion under management and offices in Birmingham AL, Richmond VA, New York, Nashville TN, London, Warsaw, and Madrid.

The Marguerite Jones Harbert Building at Birmingham-Southern College is named after her.
