The 2018–19 season is Ergotelis' 89th season in existence and 12th overall in the Football League, the second tier of the Greek football league system. It is the second consecutive season of the club in the competition since the club's latest promotion from the Gamma Ethniki. The club also participates in the Greek Cup, entering the competition in the Third Round. The contents of this article cover club activities from 1 June 2018 until 18 May 2019.
Following the departure of Takis Gonias for Wadi Degla at the end of the previous season and his replacement with Cypriot manager Nikki Papavasiliou, Ergotelis impressed with their performance in the Greek Cup, where they managed to advance to the Round of 16 despite being drawn in the same group with Super League clubs such PAOK and Aris. They went on to eliminate local Super League rival OFI in the knock-out phase to eventually make it to the quarter-finals for the first time since 1986, matching the club's best-ever performance in the competition.Ραντεβού με την ιστορία του footballleague.gr (7 February 2019)
