José Luis Riveiro (born 15 September 1977) is a Spanish professional football manager who was a former manager of Orlando Pirates FC in the Premier Soccer League.
Born in Vigo, Galicia, Riveiro began his coaching career at an early age and took over his first senior team, CD Teis in the regional leagues shortly after.

On 5 October 2018, he was named manager of FC Inter Turku. In his first season in charge, Riveiro led Inter to the 2nd position in the Veikkausliiga, qualifying the side for a European competition after six years. On 25 September 2020, he renewed his contract for the 2021 campaign. For the 2022 season, Inter replaced him with Miguel Grau.
On 25 June 2022, Riveiro was announced as the head coach of the South African side, Orlando Pirates FC. He then went on to help Orlando Pirates win the 2022 MTN 8 League Cup and the 2022–23 Nedbank Cup and secured the 2nd spot in the South African Premier Division to qualify for the CAF Champions League in his first campaign.
