Eoin Jess (born December 13, 1970 in Aberdeen) is a former Scottish international football player.

His career started at Aberdeen where he looked like a talent for the future. He earned a move to Coventry City in 1996 but this lasted just a disappointing season, before returning to Aberdeen for a second spell. He joined Bradford City in 2000 but financial problems meant he was released in 2002 following the collapse of ITV Digital. He joined Nottingham Forest in August 2002 and in his first season steered Forest into the play-offs. However they were relegated in 2005 and Jess moved on as a free agent. In July 2005 he signed with Northampton Town. Since his arrival as a player-coach the team has risen to League One. On April 3 2007 Jess revealed that his contract at Northampton was cancelled and he intends to retire from playing to pursue a coaching career.

Jess appeared 18 times for Scotland, scoring two goals.
