Jarrod Brian Stockley Smith (born 20 July 1984) is a New Zealand professional footballer who currently plays for Team Wellington.

Smith moved to the United States after he was recruited by and played three seasons for former West Virginia University head coach Michael Seabolt and played for the Mountaineers in the 2005 and 2006 NCAA Men's Soccer Championship tournaments. He played as a striker and as a winger for WVU. In four seasons with the Mountaineers, Smith scored 32 goals in 74 matches. As a senior in 2006, he scored a career high 14 goals in only 16 matches under first-year coach Marlon LeBlanc.

On 18 January 2007, Smith was selected by Toronto FC with the first pick in the 2007 MLS Supplemental Draft, but signed for Crystal Palace Baltimore in August 2007. In March 2008 the player was included on Toronto FC's website as an active member of the roster. He made MLS debut for Toronto playing against Los Angeles Galaxy on 13 April 2008, and scored his team's second goal en route to a 3-2 victory.

On 26 November of that year, Smith was selected by Seattle Sounders FC in the fourth round of the 2008 MLS Expansion Draft. On 1 July, Smith made his debut with the Sounders in a U.S. Open Cup match against USL side Portland Timbers. On 17 July, he was released without making a league appearance for the club. Smith joined Hawke's Bay United for 2010-2011 ASB Premiership season.
