Harm van Veldhoven is a Dutch football coach and former player. He is currently at the helm of KV Mechelen from the Belgian Pro League.

Harm started out his professional career at the Belgian lowest division club Lommel in 1979 where he played for six years. Then he enjoyed a meteoric rise moving to the Belgian top-flight division side Germinal Ekeren, now Beerschot AC, where he spent five successful seasons. In between 1990 and 1992, Van Veldhoven played 73 matches and scored 29 goals for Racing White Daring Molenbeek and in 1992 he stroke roots at his former club Lommel, where he made 213 appearances before the retirement in 1999. That year he decided to take up coaching and was appointed an assistant manager at Lommel becoming their head coach in the following season. The Dutch supremo led the club to the Second Division title and thus earned them a promotion to the Pro League for the 2001/02 campaign.

In the 2003/04 season, Van Veldhoven was in charge of FC Brussels which became the Second division champions due to his credit. For the next four years, he ruled the roost at Cercle Brugge and Germinal Beerschot. In between 2008 and 2012, Van Veldhoven coached the Dutch club Roda. In 2012, he took over reins at KV Mechelen from the Belgian Pro League.
