Jon Edmund Alexander Brady (born 14 January 1975) is an Australian soccer coach and former player who is the manager of EFL League Two club Port Vale.

Brady was a youth player with Adamstown Rosebud when he was spotted by English club Brentford. He went on to spend time with Swansea City and Wycombe Wanderers, though it was at Norwegian club Mjølner where he made his senior debut in 1994. He returned to England the following year to join non-League club Hayes. He was converted from centre-forward to playing on the wings and was a key player in the club's Isthmian League Premier Division title-winning campaign in 1995–96. Sold to Rushden & Diamonds for £40,000 in 1998, he won the Football Conference with the club in 2000–01. He played in the Football League Third Division the following season, taking his final tally at the club to 166 appearances. He then returned to non-League football with spells at Woking, Chester City, Stevenage Borough, Hereford United, Cambridge United, Kidderminster Harriers (on loan), Kettering Town and Brackley Town. He won the Conference North with Kettering Town in 2007–08.

He began his coaching career with Brackley Town, initially serving as caretaker manager in March 2009. He spent the next six-and-a-half years in charge, winning the Southern Premier Division in 2011–12, the Northamptonshire Senior Cup three times, and the Maunsell Cup twice. He resigned in September 2015 and went on to coach in the Academy at Northampton Town. He took caretaker charge of the first team in February 2021 and was given the job permanently despite relegation into League Two. They were beaten in the play-off semi-finals in his first full season in charge, before securing automatic promotion in 2022–23. He took the team to mid-table in League One and resigned in December 2024. He was appointed as the head coach at Port Vale in January 2026.
