Brian Grundy (born 9 May 1945 in Atherton, Lancashire) is a former English professional football winger. He played in the Football League for Bury.

Grundy qualified as a schoolteacher and played part-time for Wigan Athletic in the Cheshire League, scoring eight goals in 71 appearances for the club between 1963 and 1967. In November 1967 he played for Wigan against Bury in a Lancashire Cup game, scoring and impressing Bury manager Les Shannon to the extent that he was signed by Bury the following week. He went full-time in January 1968 and was part of the Bury side that won promotion from Division Four that season. Released by Bury at the end of the 1970-71 season, Grundy joined Great Harwood Town in July 1971. He went on to play for Bangor City, Morecambe and Winsford United before being transferred to Mossley for a fee of £100 in March 1979. He was released by Mossley in November 1979 and later had three years as manager of Glossop North End before taking over as manager of Mossley in December 1983. He was sacked in October 1984 after a poor start to the 1984–1985 season.

While managing Glossop and Mossley, Grundy was the landlord of a pub in Glossop. He later emigrated to Spain.
