Jordan Collier is a fictional character on the USA Network science fiction television series The 4400. He is portrayed by American actor Billy Campbell.

Jordan Collier quickly became one of the central figures of the 4400. Intelligent and persuasive, he quickly recognized the 4400 and their situation as being on a war footing with the government. Although his motives and means change during the course of the series from greed to altruism, Jordan's greatest wish appears to be that he will be remembered as a hero who changed the world, in the eye of the future.

Jordan Collier first appears in the episode "Becoming". A real estate mogul, he disappeared April 10, 2002, from the Seattle, Washington area. After Barbera Yates begins demonizing the returnees, he publicly reveals himself as a 4400 and begins to speak on their behalf. Meeting many of the returnees at their gatherings on Highland Beach, he announces his plans to build a complex where they can live in safety.

Jordan shows keen interest in Lily Tyler and her unborn child, Isabelle Tyler. He gives Lily and Richard Tyler a house on the estate and employs Richard as a member of his security force. It soon becomes evident, however, that his main focus is on Lily's child; after Richard discovers Jordan's intense interest in the baby, he and Lily prepare to leave. Jordan attempts to stop them, claiming that the baby represents the future and he is the best man to raise her. Lily and Richard escape, leaving Collier severely injured by a psychic attack from the unborn Isabelle.

Jordan starts the 4400 Center, a place where 4400s can live and supposedly where non-4400s can "unlock their own ability". He mentors Shawn Farrell, who sought shelter after a turbulent homecoming. Shawn's healing ability is very useful to Jordan as it brings in a large revenue, and Jordan's influence is very useful to Shawn as it allows him to reach many people in need of healing. They become very close, with Jordan assuming the role of a surrogate father to Shawn.
