Pireas, Attica, GR (On-site)1 open job
Privately-owned Greek group founded in 1984 operating travel services, maritime and port agency services across all Greek ports, and luxury hospitality properties.
Gelasakis Group of companies is a privately-owned, family-run Greek business group, founded in 1984 and headquartered in Chania, Crete, with roots in Souda Bay and a presence in Piraeus and global operations. It runs three business lines in parallel: travel services, maritime services, and hospitality. That's four decades of operation and three distinct operating verticals under one corporate roof - which is exactly the kind of topology that makes identity, access, and data flow worth thinking hard about.
The threat surface here is concrete and heterogeneous. The travel side spans air ticketing, ferry bookings, car rentals, hotel reservations, cruise arrangements, transfer services, and yacht charters - a long chain of booking flows and third-party integrations. Gelasakis Shipping Agency layers on integrated marine services: agency services, port logistics, and ground handling for passenger, commercial, and naval fleets, covering all Greek ports. The hospitality division, including properties like La Mer Resort & Spa, adds guest-facing luxury hotel operations under branded properties. Any security function here spans booking and reservation systems, port logistics coordination, fleet and ground-handling operations, and hotel property workflows - across Greece and internationally.
The group describes itself as human-centered and professional, privately held rather than PE-backed or public, with stated commitments to reliability, sustainable growth, strong partnerships, responsible investment in the local community, and a thriving workplace. Long-lived relationships with global clientele and multi-decade operations suggest a business that values continuity; the technical mandate is to make that continuity hold across travel, maritime, and hospitality without treating any single sector as representative of the others.
