Careers, Not Seasonal Jobs

Port Elysium's own team runs every service on the estate, from the hotels and restaurants to the marina, the farm and the power plant. Everyone is employed full-time, all year round, trained in several skills, with a share in the estate's success and a route to owning a home.

The vision

One Team Runs Every Service

Island hospitality usually hires for the season and lays off for the rest of the year. At Port Elysium nobody is part-time: team members move between roles with the seasons and take their holidays in the low season. Our own engineers and installers build the utilities too, so the same trained people work right across the estate.

The team is an international mix: highly qualified international specialists working alongside Bahamian team members in every department, with Port Elysium paying all recruitment and work-permit costs.

How it works

A Career Path

  1. Join. Every role is full-time and long-term, with a home, meals and uniforms.
  2. Cross-train. Certified in at least two skills, so team members can work across departments.
  3. Move with the seasons. Shift between roles through the year, with holidays in the quieter months; never laid off.
  4. Progress. Vacancies above entry level are offered to the team first, up to head of department.
On top of pay

What Every Team Member Receives

A home on site, meals and uniforms

Basic accommodation for every team member with the option to upgrade, meals on shift, and uniforms provided and laundered.

Health and pension

Group medical cover paid in full, and a 5% company contribution to a staff pension.

Training

Certified training in at least two skills, and a path to the next layer.

Tips shared fairly

Half to the team that earned them; half shared every month by every team member.

Supported home ownership

A supported mortgage programme so team members can buy their own home on the estate, at a discount and with a subsidised mortgage.

Share options

An all-staff share option plan, so every team member shares in the estate's success.

The staff village

A Community, Not a Dormitory

Every team member lives on the estate in the staff village, with shops, bars, cafés, canteens and communal facilities. Living on site removes the daily commute, supports round-the-clock operations and makes the team part of Port Elysium's permanent community. Team members can upgrade to private, couple or family homes, or buy their own home on the estate through the supported mortgage programme.

Delivery

One Team, Every Department

Hotels and the Resort Club; restaurants, bars and beach clubs; the marina; the utilities; estate services; grounds and the farm; golf, racket, equestrian and wellness; security, fire and ambulance; medical; schools; the airline; and procurement and distribution. Each new venue adds a team, and every team a leader. Tips and service charges are shared through the estate app, so the system is transparent for everyone.
