Maurice of Montreal or Maurice of Oultrejordain (French: Maurice de Montréal; died after 1153, but before 1161), was Lord of Oultrejordain from c. 1147 until his death.

After his uncle's death Pagan the Butler, Lord of Oultrejordain, Maurice became his successor. As Lord of Oultrejordain he lived in the castle of Montreal.

In 1153 Maurice participated as a vassal of Baldwin III of Jerusalem in the Siege of Ascalon. After his death the lordship returned to the royal domain, but Maurice had a daughter and heiress, Isabella, but it is not yet clear why again be restored again only when she married with Philip of Milly around 1160.
