The cabinet ministers of Carlos Ibáñez del Campo were the members of the executive branch appointed to lead Chile's ministries during his two presidential administrations (1927–1931 and 1952–1958).

His cabinets were marked by political heterogeneity and frequent ministerial turnover, reflecting the complex coalition dynamics and economic pressures of mid-twentieth-century Chile, including stabilization efforts, shifting party alliances, and institutional reconfiguration within the presidential system.
