Kim Poulsen (born March 22, 1959) is a Danish football (soccer) manager, who is the current manager of the Tanzania national football team. He most notably guided Viborg FF to the 2000 Danish Cup.

Poulsen only played amateur football as an active player.[1] As a football manager, he gained national recognition when he won promotion with Danish club Aarhus Fremad five times in only nine years, from 1987 to 1995. He managed AC Horsens from 1996 to 1997 before moving back to Aarhus Fremad in 1998. He managed AC Horsens again in 1999, before moving to Viborg FF the same year. Under Poulsen, Viborg FF turned fully professional and won the 2000 Danish Cup,[2] as well as the 2000 Danish Supercup. In October 2001, Poulsen was fired,[3] He then managed Randers FC.

In December 2002, Poulsen moved to Singapore.[1] Here he managed the under-18 team of the Singapore national football team, the Young Lions, and the Singapore Armed Forces FC. He moved back to Denmark, and joined Vejle Boldklub in January 2006 on a three year contract.[4] He was fired by the club in April 2007,[5] and joined Næstved BK in July 2007.[1]

In June 2010 he was named new manager of FC Hjørring. He left the club in April 2011 after being named as new coach of the Tanzania national under-21 football team.[6] In May 2012 he was promoted to manager of the Tanzania national football team replacing fellow Dane Jan Børge Poulsen.[7]
