Gérard Gili (born 7 August 1952 in Marseille) is a French football manager. He is currently managing Umm Salal in Qatar Stars League.

Gili was promoted from within. He is a former coach of the Under 23 side with whom he qualified for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing in January 2008 following the resignation of Ulrich Stielike due to personal reasons.

Gili was sacked by Umm Salal in 2010, leaving him unemployed for a year. However, he was reinstated on December 15, 2011 after Umm Salal sacked Moroccan coach Hassan Harmatallah for 'for unhealthy working environment'.[1] The team was at the bottom of the table with no wins so far in mid-season.

During his playing career he was a goalkeeper for Olympique de Marseille.
