Jack Wilkinson is a British former rugby league footballer and coach. He played at prop with Halifax RLFC from 1948 to 1959.

Wilkinson was a member of the Halifax side that lost the famous Odsal replay of the 1954 Challenge Cup final. He later moved to Wakefield Trinity and in 1960 helped Great Britain to victory in that year's World Cup, scoring a try in the 33-7 victory over France on Saturday 1st October 1960 at Swinton.

Wilkinson coached Bradford Northern in 1963. He has since been inducted into Halifax club's Hall of Fame.
