Geoffrey James "Geoff" Wilson (born 5 November 1952) is an Australian politician. Born in Culcairn in New South Wales, he was a barrister and union official. In 1998, he was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Queensland as the Labor member for Ferny Grove, which he has represented since. He was appointed Minister for Mines and Energy in September 2006 by Peter Beattie, and continued in that post after Anna Bligh took over as Premier a year later. Following the 2009 election, he was named Minister for Education and Training. In the February 2011 reshuffle, he was appointed Minister for Health. He served in that post until Anna Bligh resigned following Labor's loss at 2012 election, in which Wilson lost his seat.
