Low Yen Ling (born 17 August 1974) is a Singaporean politician who has been serving as Mayor of South West District since 2014, Senior Minister of State for Culture, Community and Youth and Senior Minister of State for Trade and Industry concurrently since 2024. A member of the governing People's Action Party (PAP), she has been the Member of Parliament (MP) for Bukit Gombak Single Member Constituency (SMC) since 2025. She had previously represented the Bukit Gombak division of Chua Chu Kang Group Representation Constituency (GRC) between 2011 and 2025.
Prior to entering politics, Low worked at financial institutions, a start-up venture, and the Economic Development Board (EDB).

Low was educated at Dunman High School and Temasek Junior College before graduating from the Nanyang Technological University with a Bachelor of Business with second upper honours degree in financial analysis.
Low started her career in the private sector by handling commercial lending accounts for Keppel TatLee Bank and United Overseas Bank. After that, she worked at a start-up, AutoHub Private Limited, which reportedly failed. She then joined the EDB in 2001 and became the director of three divisions.

On 4 April, prior to the 2011 general election, Low was introduced as part of the PAP team for the five-member Chua Chu Kang GRC.

During the 2015 general election, Low stood for reelection in Chua Chu Kang GRC, which had been downsized to four MPs; the PAP team won 76.91% of the vote against the People's Power Party (PPP). On 1 October 2015, Low was appointed Parliamentary Secretary at the Ministry of Education (MOE) and Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI); at the same time, she relinquished her appointments as Parliamentary Secretary at MSF and MCCY.
