David James Mulligan (born 24 March 1982) is a former New Zealand international footballer and who is now head coach of Northern League club East Coast Bays.

Born in England, he made over 180 appearances in the English Football League between 2000 and 2008. His career began at Barnsley in 2000, where he played 66 league games in three years. He spent two years at Doncaster Rovers, making close to 100 appearances, before signing with Scunthorpe United in 2006. Less of a regular with "Scunny", he enjoyed a quick spell with Port Vale in 2008, before moving to New Zealand to play for the country's only professional club, Wellington Phoenix. He joined Auckland City in 2010, and helped the club to two successive OFC Champions League titles, before he moved to Waitakere United in 2012, and Hawke's Bay United in 2013. He returned to Waitakere United the next year.

He earned national representation at under-17, under-20, under-23 and full international level. He was selected for two FIFA Confederations Cup competitions, and was also named in the 2010 FIFA World Cup squad.

He began his coaching career as head coach at East Coast Bays in October 2016.
