Ernest Paul Devinat, (2 January 1890, Mâcon — 1 May 1980, Paris) was a French academic, civil servant and politician.

In 1922, Albert Thomas appointed Devinat as head of the International Labour Organization's Employers' Organization Service and they both toured the United States in the winter of 1922/3. They met Edward Filene, a wealthy advocate of scientific management who had founded the Twentieth Century Fund. Filene offered to provide funds for the proposed International Management Institute soon to be established in Geneva.
