• Ensuring maintenance work (internal and external) meets safety and quality standards.
• Running preventative maintenance programs and emergency response procedures.
• Monitoring and optimising energy and water usage across the hotel.
• Inspecting facilities regularly and presenting updates to management.

• At least 3 years’ experience in hotel/resort engineering or maintenance leadership.
• Strong team management, communication, and problem-solving skills.
• Working knowledge of building systems, safety regulations, and compliance requirements.
