Raquel Cecilia Kismer de Olmos (born 12 December 1952), better known as Kelly Olmos, is an Argentine economist and politician who served as the country's Minister of Labour, Employment and Social Security from 2022 to 2023, in the cabinet of President Alberto Fernández.

A member of the Justicialist Party (PJ), she has spent most of her political career in Buenos Aires, where she has served as a member of the Deliberative Council (1993–1997), and later, after the adoption of the city's new constitution in 1996, as a member of the City Legislature (1997–2000). She also served in a number of executive positions within the city government under Mayor Jorge Domínguez.

From 2007 to 2011, she was Secretary of Municipal Affairs (a post within the Ministry of the Interior) during the presidencies of Néstor Kirchner and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner. She was director of the Banco Argentino de Desarrollo BICE from 2020 to 2022 and later served as vice president of the bank from January to October 2022.
