Rick Clayburgh, born April 8, 1960, is a North Dakota Republican politician and current director of the North Dakota Bankers Association. Clayburgh served as the state's Tax Commissioner from 1996 until 2005 when he resigned.

Clayburgh was well-favored in his 2002 campaign for North Dakota's at-large congressional district against incumbent Democrat Earl Pomeroy, and ran an aggressive campaign including a visit from Dick Cheney in Fargo, North Dakota. Despite the efforts, Pomeroy edged out Clayburgh and won re-election.
