Paul Jewell (born September 28, 1964) is an English football manager and former player. His last position was as an assistant coach at West Bromwich Albion, to which he was appointed in January 2015, but from which he resigned after only one week.

Jewell's playing career started with Liverpool, continued at Wigan Athletic and concluded in a ten-year spell with Bradford City, apart from a short loan spell with Grimsby Town. When his playing career ended, he became part of the coaching staff at Bradford.

Jewell was appointed manager in 1998 and took City to the Premier League before resigning and becoming manager of Sheffield Wednesday. He returned to Wigan to win a second promotion to the Premier League, but resigned a day after he kept them up in the 2006–07 season. He later joined Derby County on 28 November 2007, before resigning 13 months later.

Jewell was appointed manager of Ipswich Town in January 2011, but departed following an unsuccessful reign in October 2012.

Born in Liverpool, Lancashire, and educated at De La Salle School, Jewell began his career as an apprentice with home-city club Liverpool. It could be asserted that Because of the dominance of Ian Rush and Kenny Dalglish, he never made a first-team league appearance, and pursued his career elsewhere.

In December 1984, Jewell moved to Wigan Athletic for £15,000. He made his league debut for Wigan against Rotherham United in a 3–3 draw. He appeared 137 times for Wigan, scoring 35 goals, before moving to Bradford City in an £80,000 deal.Terry Dolan brought Jewell to Valley Parade in June 1988 as part of a re-building exercise after the club failed to win promotion to Division One in 1987–88 and had lost Stuart McCall and John Hendrie to Everton and Newcastle United respectively. He spent a decade as a player at City scoring 56 league goals in 269 appearances, and forged a successful partnership with Sean McCarthy for four of those seasons. Jewell's most successful spell occurred in 1992–93 when he scored 16 league goals to McCarthy's 17 in the first season of new player-manager Frank Stapleton's tenure.
