Description

Company Description We are looking for a Chief Engineer to join us here at The Hoxton, Amsterdam. You will be responsible for the subsequent co-management of The Hoxton, Amsterdam whilst taking full ownership of the Maintenance Department to ensure the hotel is maintained to the highest of standards whilst fully respecting local health & safety regulations and permits. Once the Mayor’s home, now our home, on Amsterdam’s Herengracht canal. The Hoxton, Amsterdam houses 111 rooms, The Apartment, our meetings & events concept, and our all-day restaurant & bar, Lotti’s. More about us… The Hoxton is a series of open-house hotels, each in a neighbourhood that we love. Ever since we opened our first hotel in Shoreditch, we’ve never just been about offering a bed for the night. We want to be more than that: proving style doesn’t need to be sacrificed for good value and providing a place where guests can hang out alongside the locals and submerse themselves in the neighbourhood with vibrant, welcoming public spaces. What’s in it for you… Become part of a team that’s very passionate about creating great hospitality experiences. Competitive salary. 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays) and pension. Food on us during your shift. Enjoy a free night at The Hoxton and a meal for two when you first start with us. Training to get you settled into your role with ongoing development that helps you think, make and thrive to set you up for success at work. Time off to volunteer with one of our partner charities. Hox Hero and Nifty fifty, our rewards for going the extra mile and living our values. An annual diversity and inclusion calendar of events creating opportunities for you to learn, celebrate and make a positive impact. Regular team get togethers, from our High Fives to our (pretty special!) team parties – we know how to have a good time! The chance to challenge the norm and work in an environment that is both creative and rewarding. It’s ok not to be ok, we offer access to OpenUp, a trusted platform for professional support and a network of mental health first aiders. Join an innovative, fast-growing, international group that is shaking things up on the hospitality scene. Excellent discounts across The Hoxton and the global Ennismore family. Job Description What you’ll do… Recruiting and training a high calibre workforce. Designing maintenance/servicing strategies, procedures and methods. Planning and scheduling planned and unplanned work. Responding immediately to and diagnosing breakdown problems. Carrying out quality inspections on jobs. Arranging specialist procurement of fixtures, fittings or components. Controlling maintenance tools, stores and equipment. Monitoring and controlling maintenance costs. Dealing with emergency and unplanned problems and repairs, fixing faults or arranging for replacements to be installed. Writing maintenance strategies to help with installation and commissioning guidelines. Allocating work to the maintenance team. Checking and calibrating plant and equipment to make sure they are accurate. Keeping heads of department informed of progress. Organising teams to manage leave and working hours to ensure 24-hour cover is available. Be personable, engaging, sociable and have a good sense of humour! Qualifications What we're looking for... Individuals. You’re looking for a place where you can be you; no clones in suits here. Passion for hospitality – whether that’s a drink, a meal, an event or a bed for the night. You’re all about having a positive impact on the people you interact with, leaving them with a memorable experience. You’re not precious. We leave our egos at the door and help get things done. You’re up for doing things differently and trying (almost) everything once. If we got stuck in a lift together we’d have a good time and share a few laughs. You want to be part of a team that works hard, supports each other and has fun along the way. Hotel or leisure related experience in a similar role. If you’re familiar with Opera or similar front desk operating system and understand GDS that would be a big advantge Job-Category: Engineering & Maintenance Job Type: Permanent Job Schedule: Full-Time
