Artur Jorge Torres Gomes Araújo Amorim (born 1 January 1972), known as Artur Jorge, is a Portuguese football manager and a former player who played as a central defender. He is managing Limianos.
Born in Braga, Artur Jorge played mostly for hometown club S.C. Braga. He made his Primeira Liga debut on 29 November 1992, coming on as a late substitute in a 2–1 away win against C.F. Os Belenenses.
After 12 years at the Estádio 1º de Maio, 33-year-old Artur Jorge retired at the end of the 2004–05 season with newly promoted F.C. Penafiel, contributing with only 90 minutes to the team's midtable finish.
Artur Jorge began working as a manager with F.C. Famalicão, helping them to the third place in the play-offs of the fourth division, narrowly missing out on promotion. He subsequently worked with Braga's under-19s, who finished second and third in the junior championship during his tenure.
In early 2012, it was announced that Braga's reserve side would be revived and compete in the Segunda Liga as of the upcoming campaign. Shortly after, Artur Jorge was named head coach; he resigned after only four months in charge.
In July 2013, Artur Jorge was appointed manager of F.C. Tirsense.
Artur Jorge's son, known by the same name, was also a footballer and a defender. He too played for Braga.
