John George "Jack" Phillips (11 April 1887 – 15 April 1912) was a British sailor and the senior wireless telegraph operator aboard RMS Titanic during her ill-fated maiden voyage in April 1912.
Before the collision with the iceberg, Phillips and his assistant, Harold Bride, had acknowledged and passed along several ice warnings to the bridge. As the ship sank, Phillips did his utmost to contact other ships for assistance and coordinated a successful rescue effort with RMS Carpathia. He did not survive the sinking and his body, if recovered, was not identified.
