For the British mining trade unionist, see John Wilson (Mid Durham MP).

John Wilson (1920 or 1921–1996) was a British trade unionist.

Born in Aberdeen, Wilson trained as a cinema projectionist and became active in the National Association of Theatrical and Kine Employees. He was elected president of this union in 1954, serving for two years, and again in 1966. In 1975, he was elected as general secretary of the union, in which post he merged the union first with the National Association of Executives Managers and Staffs, then with the Association of Broadcasting Staff, to form the Broadcasting and Entertainment Trades Alliance (BETA).[1]

Wilson was appointed as joint general secretary of BETA, serving until his retirement in 1987.[1]
