Andrew Mark Drury (born 28 November 1983) is an English footballer and football manager, who is currently player-manager of Folkestone Invicta.

He started his career in non-League football for Sittingbourne in 2001, moving to Gravesend & Northfleet in 2003. He remained with the club for three seasons before signing for Conference South side Lewes in 2006. In 2008, Drury moved up a division to the Conference Premier, signing for Stevenage Borough. In 2009, Drury won the FA Trophy with the club and, the next season, won promotion to The Football League. He opted against signing a new contract, instead joining Conference Premier side Luton Town. He remained at Luton for half a season before his strong performances attracted the interest of Championship club Ipswich Town. In January 2011 he moved to Portman Road in a transfer worth £150,000. He played in 64 games for Ipswich, alongside a loan spell at Crawley Town in League Two, before leaving in 2013 to sign for Crawley on a two-year contract. In June 2014, Drury signed for his former club Luton Town, now newly promoted to League Two, for a £100,000 fee. His second spell at the club ended by mutual consent a year early. Drury then went to play for Eastleigh, Ebbsfleet United, Havant & Waterlooville, Cray Wanderers and Folkestone Invicta before becoming the manager of Isthmian League club Whitstable Town.
