David John Lee (born 31 January 1946) is a former Archdeacon of Bradford in the Church of England Diocese of Leeds. On retirement as an archdeacon he was made archdeacon emeritus and given a co-ordinating role for mission resources in the diocese until his expected retirement in 2016.

Lee was educated at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge and ordained after an earlier career as a schoolmaster in 1978.
