Charles Geoffrey "Geoff" Coleman (born 1 October 1938) is a former Australian politician.

He was born in Melbourne, and was a livestock and real estate agent before entering parliament. In 1976 he was elected to the Victorian Legislative Assembly as the Liberal member for Syndal. Defeated in 1982, he returned in 1985 and was appointed Shadow Minister for Natural Resources in 1990. In 1992 his seat was abolished and he moved to the seat of Bennettswood. With the Coalition's victory in that election, he was appointed Minister for Natural Resources, serving until 1996. Coleman retired in 1999.[1]
