On 26 June 2008, it was revealed that Elliott would be joining the famous BBC soap opera EastEnders, as Vinnie Monks' long-lost son, Callum. He revealed in an interview that his peer mentor when he arrived was Jake Wood. Executive Producer Diederick Santer added: "Callum – played by the very talented and striking Elliott Jordan – will bring a breath of fresh air to Walford. Bright, twinkly, and with the gift of the gab, he'll get the women of Walford all of a flutter."[1] On 20 January 2009 it was announced that Jordan would be leaving EastEnders; he made his final appearance in March 2009.

Jordan appeared in the second series of the ITV comedy Benidorm, playing Jack, a young lad who catches his eye on Janice and they start a fling together. He reprised this role for the 2009 one-hour Special when he interrupted Madge and Mel's wedding. He appeared once again as Jack for Benidorm series five in 2012 and series 6 in 2014.

In 2013 he appeared in Family Tree, a HBO mockumentary-style television comedy directed by Christopher Guest.
