Other businesses may refer to this role as Maintenance Supervisor, Facilities Manager, Property Maintenance Manager or Maintenance Engineer.

About You

You’re a practical, solutions-focused maintenance professional who takes pride in high standards and getting things done right first time.

Calm under pressure and highly organised, you’re confident managing both planned work and unexpected issues, always keeping safety and guest experience front of mind.

We’re looking for someone who brings:

  • Previous experience in a maintenance or facilities role within a similar environment
  • Strong working knowledge across general trades (electrical, plumbing, carpentry, decorating)
  • Understanding of health & safety regulations and compliance standards
  • A proactive, hands-on approach with the ability to prioritise effectively
  • Strong attention to detail and pride in delivering high-quality work
  • The confidence to take ownership and make decisions
  • The ability to build relationships with contractors and internal teams

What’s in it for you

  • Career development through fully funded apprenticeships and our internal development programme.
  • Discounts on hotel stays and a variety of major retailers, restaurants and days out.
  • Free use of our gyms, pools, and leisure facilities.
  • 24/7 access to wellbeing, financial, and legal support.
  • Round the clock access to the Employee Assistance programme, offering mental health and wellbeing support, financial and legal advice.
