Sir Walter Mildmay (bef. 152331 May 1589) was an English statesman who served as Chancellor of the Exchequer of England under Queen Elizabeth I.

He was a staunch Puritan, and founded Emmanuel College at the University of Cambridge to provide for extensive theological training for Protestant preachers.

He built Danbury Place in Danbury, Essex.

A house at King Edward VI Grammar School, Chelmsford was named for a Mildmay (probably Sir Walter) in 1907.
