Baron Beaverbrook is a peerage title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. It was created in 1917.

It is most commonly associated with the first Baron, Max Aitken, who was a prominent media owner and politician from the 1910s to the 1960s. When he died, his son immediately disclaimed the title, as he wished there to only be one Lord Beaverbrook in his lifetime.

Lord Beaverbrook is also a Baronet, styled "of New Brunswick".
