James Taylor "Jim" Fleeting (born 8 April 1955) is a former Scottish footballer and manager.

He went on to play for Clyde and Greenock Morton (where he was assistant manager to Willie McLean), before joining Clyde again. He was appointed manager of Stirling Albion in the summer of 1988, before leaving the club and joining Kilmarnock as manager from 1989 to 1992.
