This is a complete list of Sweden national football team managers, football managers who have coached the Sweden national football team. The list includes the chairmen of the Swedish Football Association International Selection Committee from 1908 to 1961 which acted as national team managers, and the actual national team managers from 1962 and on. They are listed in chronological order, their total national team scores and any qualifications to the finals of the World Cup, European Championship or Olympic Games are included.
