Steven James "Steve" Housham (born 24 February 1976) is an English former professional footballer who is the manager of National League club North Ferriby United.

As a player Housham notably played as a midfielder from 1993 to 2007, notably in Football League for Scunthorpe United where he was part of the club that triumphed in the 1998/1999 Division Three Play-offs. He moved on to Barrow before finishing his career with Brigg Town, who he later managed.

Housham was born in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire. He progressed through Scunthorpe United's youth system and was promoted to the first team squad in 1993. While at United he was part of the side that earned promotion to the Second Division via the playoffs. The majority of his football at Glanford Park was under the stewardship of Brian Laws. It was Laws who loaned him out initially to Barrow during the 1999–2000 season. He later moved to the club permanently before joining Brigg Town a year later.

He was appointed Player/Manager of Brigg in 2007, and shortly afterwards retired from playing to tackle his new position in a non playing capacity. In May 2011 he quit his post at Brigg and took up the role as youth team manager at his hometown club Gainsborough Trinity where he briefly worked under manager Brian Little until he replaced Little as caretaker manager in August 2011. Following five wins out of five in caretaker charge at The Northolme Housham was appointed as full-time manager on 12 September 2011.
