Jacqueline Riordan, Director of Talent Acquisition

Favorite Pillar/Value: Empowerment

Jacqueline Riordan is the Director of Talent Acquisition at CoralTree Hospitality, working out of the Home Office. In her role, Jacqueline is passionate about ensuring that CoralTree connects with the best and brightest talent, which is essential for fostering the company's growth and cultivating a compelling culture. Hospitality runs in her blood, and her love for service makes her feel fulfilled and valued in her career.

Jacqueline's career path is intertwined with her personal interests; she enjoys dining out and critically evaluating every aspect of her experience, from ambiance to service, reflecting her deep commitment to the hospitality industry. Her most memorable career moment stems from her time at a non-profit organization, where she developed programs that made a meaningful impact on foster children and the community, a role that continues to inspire her today.

Believing in the transformative power of travel, Jacqueline incorporates this philosophy into both her personal and professional life. Travel, for her, is an opportunity to broaden her horizons, embrace discomfort, and continually grow. One of her most cherished memories is a spontaneous trip to Rome with her mother, where they stumbled upon a Chicago Cubs baseball game in an unlikely place—a moment that beautifully encapsulates the unexpected joys of travel.

Jacqueline is committed to living CoralTree's values, with a special affinity for "Serve from the Heart," and she consistently strives to build strong relationships, foster innovation, and maintain integrity in all her endeavors.
