A spacious suite to call their own with practical and reliable amenities, we’re all about easy comforts on the road.
Your day to day
We go above and beyond to keep our guests’ experiences on track. If you can fix it for our hotel to run smoothly, you could be the perfect match for our new Maintenance Representative role.
Every day is different, but you’ll mostly be:
● Repairing, replacing and refurbishing items around the hotel
● Taking responsibility for the safety and cleanliness of areas inside and outside of the hotel
● Following the preventative maintenance calendar and looking for new ways to improve our guests’ experiences
● Keeping your supervisor or duty manager in the loop with supply levels
● Being ready to step up and take on extra duties when the team needs you
What we need from you

● On top of building equipment and hand tools, you’ll have a working knowledge of basic plumbing, electrics and preventative maintenance procedures
● CPO certification – if the hotel has a pool, a Certified Pool Operator license would be ideal
● A reasonable level of fitness – you’ll be on your feet most of the day, and will need to bend and kneel a lot
● As well as meeting local laws on food handling and serving alcohol, you’ll be above the minimum age required and fluent in the local language
● Great communication skills, you’ll be warm, welcoming and easy to talk to
