Celebrating 30 Years. Building the Next Generation. Barista • Bar Operations • Front of House Careers
For 30 years, Elaia has been more than a café and restaurant.
It's been a place where careers have begun, confidence has grown, lifelong friendships have been formed and hospitality professionals have discovered what genuine service really means.
Every generation of the Elaia team has left its mark.
Some arrived with little or no experience and went on to become exceptional hospitality professionals. Others have become leaders, mentors and the familiar faces our guests have come to know and love. Our long standing team members have helped shape not only the Elaia experience, but the people who have worked beside them.
Now, as we celebrate almost three decades of hospitality, it's time to welcome the next generation.
Join the Next Generation of Elaia
We're searching for hospitality professionals who aren't simply looking for their next job.
We're looking for people who see hospitality as a career.
People who take pride in creating memorable guest experiences, enjoy learning, value teamwork and want to grow within a business that invests heavily in its people.
At Elaia, you'll certainly learn how to make exceptional coffee and craft quality cocktails, but you'll also learn something much harder to teach.
You'll learn our service culture.
You'll discover the Greek values of Filotimo—doing the right thing with pride, generosity and honour—and Meraki—putting your heart, soul and creativity into everything you do.
These values can't be taught in a single week. They are developed over time, through mentorship, experience and a genuine commitment to hospitality.
It's why our guests return again and again.
