Vincent Malone (born September 11, 1931) is an English prelate of the Roman Catholic Church. He is the Auxiliary Bishop emeritus of the Archdiocese of Liverpool.

Malone was born in Liverpool, and was ordained to the priesthood on September 18, 1955, in Old Swan. On May 13, 1989, he was appointed Titular Bishop of Abora and Auxiliary Bishop of Liverpool. He received his episcopal consecration on the following July 3 from Archbishop Derek Worlock, with Bishops Kevin O'Connor and John Rawsthorne serving as co-consecrators.

The Vatican officially announced that on October 26, 2006, Malone was to retire from his post in Liverpool. As with all bishops, he was required to submit his letter of retirement to Pope Benedict XVI upon reaching age 75. He will continue to be a Vicar General, a member of the Archbishop's council, and a trustee of the Archdiocese. Moreover, although he will no longer carry out formal parish visitations, Malone will continue to celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation.
