Jake Larkins (born 11 January 1994) is an English footballer who plays as a goalkeeper, but is currently without a club.
Larkins began his career in the youth system at West Ham United, and never played in the Hammers' first team, but played regularly in the U21 side. Aged 16, he made an appearance as an unused substitute for West Ham in the Premier League, providing cover for Ruud Boffin (playing his only league match for the club) in the 1–1 draw at Blackburn Rovers on 18 December 2010.
Larkins was sent out on loan to two local non-league clubs during 2012. He began the 2012–13 season on a month-long loan with Billericay Town in the Conference South, and made his senior debut in their 2–1 opening day win over Truro City on 18 August 2012. Joining Isthmian League side Grays Athletic at the end of September 2012, he played four times for the club including a 2–1 win at Cheshunt in October. He was recalled from his loan early by West Ham.
Larkins was injured in a road accident in Harold Hill, London, on 15 April 2013, and spent the rest of the day in hospital before being released that evening.
Larkins signed for League One club Leyton Orient in June 2013 on a one-year deal, after being released by West Ham. He made his debut for the club in the first round of the FA Cup, as Orient beat Southport 5–2 on 9 November 2013.
When Orient's first-choice goalkeeper Jamie Jones suffered an injury prior to the league game at Gillingham on 26 December, Larkins made his Football League debut at the Priestfield Stadium as Orient won 2–1. At the end of the season, after appearing on the bench for the 2014 Football League One play-off Final, he was released by Orient along with four other players.
