Jack E. Clarke (14 July 1933 – 3 December 2001) was an Australian rules footballer and coach in the VFL.

Clarke was a talented centreman who debuted on his eighteenth birthday in 1951 and played 263 games for the Essendon Football Club from 1951 to 1967, booting 180 goals.

Clarke was also noted as an architect that studied during the early stages of his VFL career. He was inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame in 1996, and was the brother of former Olympian Ron Clarke.

He took over from John Coleman as Essendon coach in 1968, taking the team to the Grand Final, which they narrowly lost. He was replaced as coach at the end of the 1970 season when Essendon finished 11th (of 12).
