Born in Auckland, Jordan played with Hamilton Old Boys before making the move to Scotland to join the Ayrshire Bulls. Jordan made a big impact at Super 6 series level, winning player of the match in the Bulls' final triumph in 2021, and his form led to Glasgow signing him later that year.
Jordan waited almost a year for his professional debut against Benetton, but the 25-year-old impressed head coach Franco Smith during his breakthrough season.
Although Ross Thompson and Duncan Weir provide competition at fly-half, Smith trusted Jordan with the starting jersey against Leinster and his decision to move to Scotland is now paying dividends.
Speaking in the Evening Times, Jordan said: "Last season, for me, my main goal was to play one game because it [his Glasgow debut] had been a bit of an elusive one. Obviously, I got to start pretty early on so that changed things and I just wanted to learn and grow as much as I could and put my best foot forward every time I was out there.
"I was really grateful for the opportunities I got given under Franco but I didn't really expect the season to go like that, to get the opportunities. And how we ended up was awesome as well. I can't speak highly enough of last season."
Jordan's impressive running ability stems from playing regularly throughout his career since youth level. Warriors coach Smith views his versatility as a major asset but he's likely to play more at fly-half this season given Glasgow's strength at inside-centre with Stafford McDowall and Sione Tuipulotu.
Jordan says he's happy to play wherever Smith requires in order to ensure Glasgow enjoys a successful season.
"I actually played a lot at 10 and 12 to be fair, and even at Ayr I was playing 12 and I got shifted into 10 for the end of the season we won [Super 6]. I feel like I always start at 12 and find my way back to 10 somehow, but I enjoy both, honestly. It's two parts of my game which I enjoy.
"Ten is communicating and directing on the field which I enjoy. And at 12 I enjoy the physical side of the game and being more in the front line. I feel I can do these roles effectively in either position.
"You learn when you're playing 10 what you need from a 12 so then when I go to 12 I know what communication I need to give to the 10 so it helps. It's like when you're younger and you play all sorts of sports and it helps you overall. It's sort of the same thing, you play a few positions and it hopefully all helps."
