Roderick "Roddy" McKenzie (born 8 August 1975) is a retired Scottish professional association footballer who played as goalkeeper. He is currently a coach at Thorniewood United in the Scottish Junior Football Association, West Region after leaving Queen of the South by mutual consent on 10 January 2012.
His greatest success to date has been with Livingston for whom he made over 150 league appearances and won the Scottish League Cup.
McKenzie started his career with Heart of Midlothian, signing his first contract in 1993. He did not experience any first team football until he went on a year-long loan at Stenhousemuir in the 1995–96 season. The highlight of his spell at Ochilview Park was Stenhousemuir's victory in the Scottish Challenge Cup, when McKenzie saved a penalty in the 5–4 penalty shootout win against Dundee United, following a 0–0 draw.
McKenzie returned to Hearts and played as an understudy to, among others, Gilles Rousset and Antti Niemi. He was never able to establish himself permanently in the first team making 52 starts over 10 years at the Tynecastle club.
McKenzie moved from Hearts to Livingston in 2003. McKenzie appeared 119 times during his 3-and-a-half-year spell in West Lothian. Livingston won their first major honour when they defeated Hibernian 2–0 in the 2004 Scottish League Cup Final with goals in the final scored by Derek Lilley and Jamie McAllister. This triumph came amidst a cash crisis and period in administration for Livingston, which severely weakened the playing side. Despite McKenzie's best efforts, the club was relegated after several years of struggle, following the 2005–06 season.
