Brett Douglas Pitman (born 31 January 1988) is a Jersey-born professional footballer who plays for English club Ipswich Town. He signed for Bournemouth as a 16-year-old after being spotted playing for Jersey side St. Paul's and went on to become a regular in the Bournemouth first team. In August 2010, he moved to Championship side Bristol City. In December 2012 he was loaned back to Bournemouth, until making the deal permanent in January 2013. He later signed for Ipswich Town, on a three-year deal.

Pitman has represented Jersey, having become an integral part of their team at the biennial Island Games.

Pitman began his career in his native Jersey in the Jersey Football Combination with local clubs First Tower United and St. Paul's, before moving to England with Bournemouth.

Pitman scored his first senior goal for Bournemouth against Blackpool in the 2006–07 season, which resulted in a 1–1 draw. Pitman scored seven goals during the 2007–08 season, but was unable to prevent Bournemouth from being relegated to League Two. The following season, he was sent off just three minutes after he came on as a substitute in Bournemouth's FA Cup exit against non-league side Blyth Spartans. On 13 March, he was awarded Sky Sports' goal of the week for an effort which saw him dribble from inside his own half, beating three players before scoring.
