Description JOIN OUR TEAM Join our team! Windsor Hospitality thrives in building hospitality careers. We want to design a path of professional growth and give you the keys to that success. We are recognized as a strong partner with warm-hearted hospitality staff nationwide. Windsor Hospitality is looking for their newest Chief Engineer! ABOUT THIS LOCATION This position is located at the Embassy Suites by Hilton in Temecula CA. We are located in Southern California’s beautiful wine country, Temecula is known for its welcoming community, scenic rolling hills, and award-winning wineries. The city is an ideal place to work and live, offering both professional opportunities and high quality of life. Why do we need you? Every great hotel has a great Chief Engineer behind it — someone who knows the building inside and out, leads a team that trusts them, and never lets a preventive maintenance item slip through the cracks. That’s what we’re looking for. As Chief Engineer, you’re responsible for the entire physical operation of the property: every system, every guest room, every capital project. You’ll work directly with the General Manager, partner with corporate on CapEx, and develop an Engineering team that performs at the highest level. If you’re a technical leader who holds their team to a high standard and loves the challenge of keeping a full-service hotel running smoothly, this role is for you. What will you do? Supervise, develop, and maintain an ongoing preventive maintenance program for the hotel, covering refrigeration, heating, plumbing, water treatment, guest and meeting rooms, A/H units, ice machines, swimming pools, lighting, kitchen equipment, emergency generators, water softeners, switch rooms, roof exhausts, electrical substations, and related systems. Ensure all projects and work orders are completed according to specifications, on time, and within established expense plans. Work closely with all department heads, including Housekeeping and Front Desk, to coordinate maintenance activities and minimize guest disruption. Establish and maintain a training program for the Engineering department covering base knowledge of hotel systems, first responder activities, and Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) shut-offs. Partner with Human Resources and Security vendors to implement the First Responder program and hotel-wide safety initiatives. Meet with third-party vendors including general contractors, trades service professionals, architects, and designers to develop project scopes; participate in capital expense budget planning, scheduling, and closeouts; partner with corporate for capital expense approvals and project execution. Perform work within departmental expense plans; estimate, requisition, and inspect materials as needed. Study work schedules and estimate labor requirements for job assignments; establish or adjust work procedures to meet operational schedules. Skills and Abilities you bring: Strong technical knowledge of hotel building systems including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, refrigeration, and Fire Life Safety. Ability to plan, direct, and hold accountable a team of Engineers and Groundskeepers, either directly or through lead technicians. Knowledge of government regulations, safety requirements, and compliance standards covering hotel facilities operations. Ability to work effectively across a wide variety of maintenance situations and solve problems using facts and sound judgment. Ability to react quickly in emergency situations and make high-stakes decisions involving financial risk or the safety of guests and associates. Strong interpersonal skills; ability to work with diverse team members, department heads, vendors, and ownership representatives. What we offer: Join a team that invests in you! We’re proud to offer a comprehensive and competitive benefits package to support the well-being and growth of all our eligible employees: Medical, Dental, Vision, Life & Disability Insurance — Quality healthcare plans for eligible employees to stay healthy and protected.
