Kieron Owen Timothy (Tim) Quinn (born July 26, 1949, Ipswich, Queensland) is an Australian politician.

His reign as Brisbane's Lord Mayor was one of the city's shortest. Quinn, part of the left wing faction of the Australian Labor Party, came to power after a factional deal by party officials following popular Lord Mayor Jim Soorley's retirement from politics in 2003. He was subsequently defeated by Campbell Newman in March 2004.
